About this listen
Women make up almost half of today's labor force, but in corporate America they don't share half of the power. A major reason for this? Most women were never taught how to play the game of business.
Throughout her career in the super-competitive, male-dominated media industry, Gail Evans, one of the country's most powerful executives, has met innumerable women who tell her that they feel lost in the workplace, almost as if they were playing a game without knowing the directions. In this book, she reveals the secrets to the playbook of success and teaches women at all levels of the organization - from assistant to vice president - how to play the game of business to their advantage.
Men know the rules because they wrote them, but women often feel shut out of the process because they don't know when to speak up, when to ask for responsibility, what to say at an interview, and a lot of other key moves that can make or break a career. Sharing with humor and candor her years of lessons from corporate life, Gail Evans gives listeners practical tools for making the right decisions at work.

Data is fundamental to the modern world. From economic development, to healthcare, to education and public policy, we rely on numbers to allocate resources and make crucial decisions. But because so much data fails to take into account gender, treating men as the default and women as atypical, bias and discrimination are baked into our systems. And women pay tremendous costs for this bias in time, money, and often with their lives. Celebrated feminist advocate Caroline Criado Perez investigates the shocking root cause of gender inequality and research in Invisible Women.

Leadership expert Sally Helgesen and best-selling leadership coach Marshall Goldsmith have trained thousands of high achievers - men and women - to reach even greater heights. Again and again, they see that women face specific and different road blocks from men as they advance in the workplace. In fact, the very habits that helped women early in their careers can hinder them as they move up. Simply put, what got you here won't get you there...and you might not even realize your blind spots until it's too late.

How can we originate new ideas, policies, and practices without risking it all?

Women have been making strides towards equality for decades, or so we’re often told. They’ve been increasingly entering male-dominated areas of the workforce and consistently surpassing their male peers in grades, university attendance, and degrees. They’ve recently stormed the political arena with a vengeance. But despite all of this, the payoff is—quite literally—not there: the gender pay gap has held steady at about 20% since 2000. And the number of female CEOs for Fortune 500 companies has actually been declining.

In The Myth of the Nice Girl, Fran Hauser deconstructs the negative perception of "niceness" that many women struggle with in the business world. If women are nice, they are seen as weak and ineffective, but if they are tough, they are labeled a bitch.

People are the problem. They're always the problem. If a business person goes home frustrated, if they talk with their significant other about it, if they lay awake at night stewing about it, inevitably the problem is some person at work - a colleague, subordinate, or boss. Handling people issues is every leader's major headache. It's what takes up the majority of their time and - more important - the bulk of their head space. Every leader can and must develop this most important of all management skills.

But as Emma teaches, what most often holds us back are our own fears, excuses, and doubts. With her revolutionary manifesto, Winging It, Emma shares a rallying cry for all women to “do the things that scare you, build your wealth, make an impact, fail lots, and get up and try again”.

It was okay.
Some decent insights, but I couldn’t help but feel like this is more of asking women to work around the toxic self-centeredness and egomania of the “good ol boys club” behavior. I will give it a second listen eventually and update this review.

Timeless and sound advice!
This book by Gail Evans offers timeless and sound advice for how to navigate the working world as a professional women. It doesn't matter that we are years into the women's movement - we now are deep into #MeToo, #SeeHer and many other issues that continue to plague women from an inequality standpoint. This book offers fierce and fearless advice for how women can take the power back into their own hands, and move forward successfully. The authors own story of how she made it to the top in a news and media environment full of men, is full of practical tips and tools which can be applied for success today. A true feminist classic that should be on every women's list - young or mature!

Good information for anyone on the 'playground'
The book has a lot of relatable information for anyone, regardless of age, current professional status or gender. It helps to bring perspective to issues we face everyday and provides validation and empowerment to act as needed.
I found the narration engaging and think she did a fantastic job capturing Gail's personality.

Outdated
This would have been useful to me 20 years ago - wish I’d read it then! There are more contemporary books now for women in the workplace. I recommend the Confidence Code.
