Great read for women in corporate environments and academia. These 12 habits cover common psychological tendencies in women (Jean Baker Miller’s Toward A New Psychology Of Women covers much of this) and how they manifest in the workplace. Sally Helgelsen discusses the ways these can benefit us and hold us back and gives some practical advice on how to overcome the drawbacks. A good read and a nice exercise in self reflection. I don’t usually like self-help books of this nature but there’s enough academic context to support her suggestions that it doesn’t feel like a “boss babe guidebook”. I now follow Sally’s work on LinkedIn and other platforms, highly recommend that!!

A self-help book that feels more like a personalized coaching session! Lots of actionable feedback specifically for women in the workforce.
