Book description
Nice Girls Don't Get the Corner Office - A Must-Read Blueprint for Women Who Want to Lead
Lois P. Frankel's new edition of Nice Girls Don't Get the Corner Office feels like a personal coaching session with a seasoned executive mentor. After the "Lean In" craze, Dr. Frankel cuts straight to the heart of what really blocks women from climbing the ladder: unconscious habits we pick up as girls and never realize are career-killing.
What makes this book stand out is its sheer breadth-over 130 specific behaviors mapped out in a clear, numbered format that's easy to reference. Each "mistake" comes with a concise explanation, real-world examples, and actionable tips. For instance, Mistake #13 on avoiding office politics isn't just about being invisible; it's about learning the subtle art of strategic networking. Mistake #21 tackles multitasking, reminding us that doing more is not the same as doing better. And Mistake #54 debunks the myth that negotiation equals confrontation-an eye-opener for many who fear saying "no."
Frankel's tone is encouraging, not preachy. She blends psychological insight with practical advice, so you can start applying changes in your next meeting or email right away. The updated edition also addresses modern challenges like social media etiquette (Mistake #70) and the importance of self-advocacy (Mistake #82), ensuring relevance for today's workplace.
Whether you're a recent graduate, a mid-career professional, or an executive looking to fine-tune your leadership style, this book offers a roadmap that is both empowering and realistic. It reminds us that being "nice" isn't a weakness-it's simply a different set of habits that can be reshaped into confidence, influence, and ultimately, the corner office.
If you're ready to stop letting unconscious biases dictate your career trajectory, grab a copy of Nice Girls Don't Get the Corner Office. It's a practical, engaging guide that turns self-improvement into strategic advancement-one mindful change at a time.
