Sisterhood In The Workplace: Women Helping Women Succeed

For Women, A Call to Action Assessing all that she's learned from her own experiences working and advancing in the corporate environment since the 1990s, Jaclyn Jhin, despite her personal successes, had one recurring takeaway: Why weren't more women achieving their career goals on par with their male counterparts? In Sisterhood in the Workplace, Jhin confronts the old stereotypes that have hung on since the last century, ones that perpetuate the notion that, with very few exceptions, women are not ambitious enough, strong, savvy or tough enough to garner and hold the top positions. Furthermore, Jhin offers the solution of "sisterhood in the workplace" and a clear strategy to get there, including: Steps women need to take to ensure, now and moving forward, that their status and rewards in the workplace reflect a whole new reality. How to "stay in" and remain on a career track when mounting pressures make it appear that giving up is a better option. How to achieve genuine work-life balance and share "emotional labor" issues equally at home. How to change the perception that "men make better leaders," given that research shows women possess far more of the essential leadership qualities. How male co-workers and bosses are potential allies in the fight for increased opportunities for women. Confidence as a key factor in a woman staying focused on her career goals. How a well-connected sponsor, who can speak on your behalf, can be even more important than having a mentor. Sisterhood in the Workplace demonstrates how having more women in leadership positions improves the success of companies across the board, leading to a win-win for everyone in the organization. To that end, in order for women to finally work up to, and realize their greatest potential as leaders, the dynamic of sisterhood must be introduced and implemented into the workplace.
