Develop Your Assertiveness: Change Your Behaviour; Be More Confident; Get What You Want (Sunday Times Creating Success) Review

Develop Your Assertiveness: Change Your Behaviour; Be More Confident; Get What You Want (Sunday Times Creating Success)

Would you benefit in your business or in your social life if you became a better advocate for yourself? Unless you are already quite capable of asserting yourself, the answer is probably yes. The problem is that assertiveness training has a bad reputation, as author Sue Bishop acknowledges. In this short, easy book, she suggests ways that individuals can change their behavior to become more confident. You can learn at your own pace, using the book's self-tests, exercises and comments. Bishop's handbook does not contain very much that is new, but it is a good tool for people who would like to teach themselves the basics. We recommend this book to those who want to find out how to persuade others and stick up for themselves. If you're a manager mired in meekness, here's your ticket to the limelight.

The Time Divide: Work, Family, and Gender Inequality (Family and Public Policy) Review

The Time Divide: Work, Family, and Gender Inequality (Family and Public Policy)

Jacobs & Gerson present a clear explication of the conflict between work and family encountered by so many parents today. They review popular hypotheses (e.g. Americans work more hours than they used to), examine the relevant research, and provide sound and clearly reasoned conclusions. THE TIME
DIVIDE clarifies precisely why current workplace structures are
incompatible with the realities of family life today - and why this is especially the case for professionals, like the lawyers I coach. I applaud Jacobs and Gerson for making clear
that work/life conflict is a social policy issue of enormous
importance. They make a compelling case for the ways in which
individual choices are constrained by workplace demands and social norms. If every law firm partner read this book, would things finally change enough so that women lawyers would have a fair chance at success and leadership? Would that it were so.
