Great book. As with any self help book all advice ought to be taken with a pinch of salt. Nonetheless, most of the advice here is highly sensible.

A nice summary of workplace habits that can be refined and practiced. My sister recommended this book to me because she knows I struggle with several of the nice girl habits. I appreciate the tone of this book which is direct, firm, and no-nonsense. There are some suggestions that may seem to be less than progressive (no tattoos? wear makeup?) but these are explained under the notion that there are, actually, different rules for workplace success for men and women, even if it's not fair. Much of the other advice (there are, after all, over a hundred suggestions here) is more easily accepted - be direct, speak up, say what you mean, etc. Interesting read.

Enkele tips zijn goed, deze worden daarna door een negatieve toon weer afgebroken. Misschien is haar aanpak in Amerika geaccepteerd, maar denk dat dit daarbuiten negatief overkomt.

Typical cookie-cutter career advice book that glazes over the unique challenges women of color experience.

Also, the author referred to slaves as indentured servants (when referencing the movie Lincoln).
