2 authors picked The Memo as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
When I first saw this book, I couldn’t believe that it hadn’t been written already, decades before it actually came out. Minda Harts understands from her own experience that even the best advice for women often misses what women of color need the most to succeed.
I loved the straight talk and the practical advice; there are truths in this book that we all need to hear and guidance that we can all benefit from.
From Cecilia's list on inspirational books for women color.
This book empowered me during one of the most defining phases of my career in technology. Minda Harts' strategic blueprint on maneuvering the workplace as a woman of color provides guided insight that enables and prepares cognizance of professional politics. The Memo is by far the greatest playbook guiding women on the foundation within their professional atmosphere while navigating through their careers.
