Jonathan Lethem: IMG Stops: On Those Things My New Novel Forgot to Be About, Maybe



For me, there's a weird, unfathomable gulf — I almost wrote gulp — between the completion of a novel and its publication. Some days this duration feels interminable, as though the book has... Continue »

Publisher Comments:

Play Like a Man, Win Like a Woman, Gail Evans's first blockbuster book on getting ahead in business, was a New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and Business Week business bestseller. In her eagerly awaited new book, this powerhouse author-and CNN's first female executive vice president-takes her empowering approach to corporate success to the next level: It isn't enough for women to understand and learn men's rules-they must create their own. And the path to success begins with this single most important rule:

Evey time a woman succeeds in business, every other woman's chance of succeeding in business increases.

Every time a woman fails in business, every other woman's chance of failure increases.

Whether you're a top executive or an entry-level assistant, She Wins, You Win will give you the tactics and strategies (and a few controversial ideas along the way) you need to attain your career goals:

* How supporting each other paves the way for success

* The importance of being a team player-and how to set up your own winning team

* When it's okay to break the rules

* How to tap into the resources already at your disposal

* Discovering your rainmaking skills

* Sharing information

* Why women should forget networking and start "webbing"

* Women to watch out for-from "Queen Beas" to "Seniority Sues"

Review:

Why isn't there an 'Old Girls' Network? Gail Evans tells us why-and shows us how to create one. (Rachel Simmons, author of the New York Times bestseller Odd Girl Out)
