This handbook is a call to action for women (and men who support women) who are ready to take their careers and their lives to the next level and start getting what they want and deserve at work. An unprecedented number of doors have opened for women, and not all women are ready. Readers need the confidence to step into their power and own their authenticity to truly thrive at work. They are willing to do their part in closing the gender gap for female CEOs and negotiate equal pay and confront gender-based conversation bias. This action-packed communication handbook provides the tools and confidence needed to approach the problem.
