Book description
Dr. Lois Frankel's "Nice Girls Don't Get the Corner Office" arrives as a vital, revised edition of the groundbreaking career guide that predated the "Lean In" era. This audiobook isn't just a book; it's your direct line to an internationally recognized executive coach. Dr. Frankel's clear, practical voice guides you through over 130 unconscious habits learned in girlhood that sabotage women's careers-habits you might not even realize you're playing. Forget vague advice; she identifies specific, actionable mistakes with startling clarity.
Imagine learning Mistake #70: "Inappropriate use of social media." Dr. Frankel explains it bluntly: "Once it's out there, it's hard to put the toothpaste back in the tube." This isn't about being perfect; it's about recognizing the real pitfalls. She dismantles others like Mistake #54 (failure to negotiate-don't confuse it with confrontation) and Mistake #21 (multi-tasking: just because you can do it, doesn't mean you should). Her coaching tips are seamlessly woven into the narrative, making them easy to absorb while listening.
The audiobook format is perfect for this content. You'll hear the urgency in her voice as she tackles Mistake #82: "Asking permission." She insists, "Children, not adults, ask for approval. Be direct, be confident." The spoken word makes these lessons feel like a personal conversation, not a lecture. You'll grasp the critical point about Mistake #13-avoiding office politics-immediately: "If you don't play the game, you can't possibly win." It's a sobering, necessary truth delivered with empathy.
This revised edition updates Frankel's insights for today's workplace, making it essential reading (or listening) for any woman aiming for leadership. She doesn't blame; she empowers. By naming the "nice girl" errors-like over-apologizing or shrinking your presence-she provides the roadmap to stop sabotaging yourself. The audiobook's pacing lets these revelations sink in, turning theory into immediate, practical strategy. Stop making these mistakes silently. Dr. Frankel's voice on your headphones turns awareness into action, helping you reclaim your career trajectory with confidence, not apology. This isn't just a book; it's your career's missing instruction manual, delivered with unmatched clarity.
