The Confidence Myth: Why Women Undervalue Their Skills, and How to Get Over It


This book contains a practical tool kit that will help potential women leaders reach higher levels. Helene Lerner has spoken and consulted at hundreds of companies where women struggle with confidence and the impostor syndrome--ironically, the more qualified women are, the more hesitant they are to take risky assignments. The chapters are organized around myths and truths that can either support or deter women from stepping up. Interspersed among the pages are Confidence Sparks, reflective exercises, and Power Tips to propel readers forward. While Lerner's book is built upon years of experience as a coach and mentor, her goal is to inspire and persuade women to make courageous moves, not to give statistics and research on inequality. The operative word is NOW. Men are not waiting to step up and speak up, so women can't afford to wait for their turn.

  Breaking Through Bias: Communication Techniques for Women to Succeed at Work READ MORE Breaking Through Bias: Communication Techniques for Women to Succeed at Work More than fifty years after the beginning of the Women’s Movement and forty years after passage of Title IX, women are still not “making it” in traditionally male careers. Women start their careers on parity with men but generally end them far earlier, having achieved less status, lower compensation, and less satisfaction than men. Breaking Through Bias explains that it is the stereotypes about women, men, work, leadership, and family that hold women back, and it presents an integrated set of communication techniques that women can use to avoid the discriminatory consequences of these stereotypes.

As Lanchester writes, we need to understand what the money people are talking about so that those who speak the language don’t just write the rules for themselves.Lanchester explains more than 300 words and phrases from “AAA rating” and “amortization” to “yield curve” and “zombie bank.” He covers things we say or hear every day—such as ...
