Why read it?

I have started using many of her tricks, such as "adopting" a mentor, and ensuring I do not use placating and apologetic language (or, I do it less....). Shellye is pretty darn amazing!
Shellye Archambeau is one of the most successful tech business leaders in America. And this book shows you how she did it and how you can, too. The secrets include clearly defining the goal as early in life as possible; don’t wait. This book will let you know when to say “yes,” and which enticing offers deserve a hard “no.”
From Gena's list on the need for DEI and workplace inclusion.
