Description
Breaking into the Boys' Club
is the ultimate guide to success for women in business. No matter what
stage in your career or what job position you hold, this book offers you
practical, relatable ways to evaluate your work style and workplace
culture in order to better understand behavior that may be holding you
back from advancing in your field.
Based on extensive research, Breaking into the Boys’ Club
offers compelling stories, quizzes, and tips to help diagnose issues
and discover powerful, step-by-step solutions to irksome office
challenges. Written by leadership coaches who have “been there and seen
that,” this book contains straight talk about the mistakes women make
and how to fix them in order to achieve more personal and professional
satisfaction and success. New to this edition are sections on dealing
with workplace conflict, the importance of sponsors, and how women
should think about and plan for their post-career futures.
Molly D. Shepard is founder and president of The Leader’s Edge, an organization that promotes the advancement of high-level executive women.
Jane K. Stimmler is CEO of The Marketing Edge, a marketing consulting and communications firm.

I love the approach of Breaking into the Boys' Club,
a no-nonsense combination of workbook, case studies, and good advice.
The payoff at book's end is apparent once you realize that you've been
led from conceiving to designing and then to executing a personal
development plan guaranteed to grow your career.

Teri A, Reviewer
As a woman who has witnessed first-hand, over and over again, the "good old boys" in action, I truly believe that this book is a MUST READ for any woman who is really trying to forward her career - not only in the corporate world, but in small and medium sized businesses as well!
Learning the rules and learning how to play their game is critical, and the authors do a great job telling it like it is and helping women learn to navigate their way in corporate politics without selling themselves short.
