内容简介 The workplace is changing: the typical male management style is now obsolete! From boardrooms to nonprofit organizations to the military, there is a new generation of employees who reject hierarchical leadership and respond to behaviours and characteristics that women have been traditionally socialized to exhibit. Employees, volunteers and children want to be muscled less and influenced more - and this is where women come in. In SEE JANE LEAD Dr. Frankel argues that women can naturally lead with greater ease, confidence, and comfort than men. In other words, although most women don't know it, they are natural born leaders. Frankel provides readers with a blueprint for how women can lead in the workplace as well as on the soccer field. Filled with sharp insight, unique practical advice and real-life examples of successful female leaders, SEE JANE LEAD explains the most effective ways women can take charge in the business world, the home or beyond - using qualities and assets they've had all along.
编辑推荐 From Publishers Weekly
The latest from the bestselling author of Nice Girls Don't Get Rich delineates the attitudes and obstacles that keep women from reaching the top, and provides effective strategies for using and overcoming them. Though many of the book's premises polarize the sexes, they do so in the service of sound advice and strategy, including how to articulate a vision, when to take risks and never to underestimate the power of the "likability quotient." As for the promised list of 99 tips, they're spread throughout the book, springing up in the midst of Frankel's occasionally long-winded text (e.g., six page of former employees' praise for deceased makeup entrepreneur Mary Kay Ash) and are grouped according to utility ("Creating High-Performing Teams," "The Leader as Coach," etc.). Tips are bolstered by familiar-seeming anecdotes and exercises (team effectiveness surveys, self-assessment tests, a communication-style classification quiz), but Frankel effectively teaches women-without turning soft or saccharine-they needn't give up charm, compassion or a nurturing nature in order to kick ass. Though much of Frankel's hard-earned wisdom could benefit the Dicks of the business world just as well as the Janes, this businessgirl-power manifesto is passionate, well-researched and authoritative.
