The Myth of the Nice Girl: Achieving a Career You Love Without Becoming a Person You Hate by Fran Hauser

4.0

There are great tips in this book for working women (or anyone who works, really). I wish I had read this book ten years ago when I was really getting in to my career. Even though I'm no longer on that same career trajectory (since the pandemic, I'm still trying to figure some things out), there are a lot of helpful suggestions to navigate a variety of scenarios and I thought the mentor chapter was very enlightening. I do think all leaders, male or female, should read this - being kind to employees or others, in general, is a positive characteristic! So is having empathy, being collaborative, learning how to approach others to have difficult conversations, etc. (I'm thinking of a few supervisors I've had in my time . . . )
