Recenzii
"Joan Williams and Rachel Dempsey clearly and vividly detail the double standards and the dead ends that so many women face in the workplace. Fortunately, the authors also provide easy-to-follow strategies to counter these scenarios. This book can help women claim their seat at the table and lean in to their careers." -Sheryl Sandberg, author of Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead
"If you're a working woman searching for the best pocket guide to success at work, here it is. Prove-It-Again, the Tightrope, The Maternal Wall, the Tug of War, Double Jeopardy--the distinguished scholar Joan Williams and her daughter guide women through each of these sticky wickets. Their invaluable advice is no substitute for broader changes in the workplace, they note, but it can help position more women to accomplish that change."-Arlie Hochschild, author of The Outsourced Self and So How's the Family? and other essays
"Williams and Dempsey provide the essential bridge between research findings on prejudice and discrimination and the problems that women experience at work. Solutions exist, and these authors present them. What Works for Women at Work is a must-read book for everyone committed to creating gender-fair workplaces."-Alice H. Eagly, author of Through the Labyrinth: The Truth About How Women Become Leaders
"This book is a must-read for any woman who is feeling frustrated or thwarted in her attempts to advance at work. Williams and Dempsey balance deeply personal accounts with practical guidance. With candor and humor, they address the nuances and risks of generally accepted advice and recommend concrete strategies and clear action plans to help women succeed."-Amy Schulman, Group President, Global Vaccines, Oncology and Consumer Business
"Having sifted through many of the debates about how much women can and should succeed, Williams and Dempsey finally offer a template on how women can do that and how the workforce can support this integration; whether these women are homemakers or management, this book is a confidence booster. A much needed look at what women might want, but what society needs."-Amy Richards, author of Opting In, and co-author of Manifesta
"Much of its advice is solid career counsel for anyone look to move up...ultimately the tone of this book is quite hopeful...[T]this book's message: If we make ourselves and the men in our lives aware of the roadblocks women still face, and we use some of the many tools the authors offer in this volume, we are likely to see women move ahead more quickly. In fact I wish there were a way to interest men in reading this book. They would get the most out of it."-"Forbes.com",
"The book offers women advice for asking for promotions or pay raises, while acknowledging that women who ask for these things can be considered masculine in ways that might undermine their success. I particularly appreciated reading about the toxic competition between women at work that can also hinder the success of women collectively."-Joshunda Sanders, "Salon.com"
