Nice Girls Don't Get the Corner Office: Unconscious Mistakes Women Make That Sabotage Their Careers Description
The New York Times bestseller, which for 10 years has been a must-have for women in business, is now completely revised and updated. In this new edition, internationally recognized executive coach Lois P. Frankel reveals a distinctive set of behaviors-over 130 in all-that women learn in girlhood that ultimately sabotage them as adults. She teaches you how to eliminate these unconscious mistakes that could be holding you back and offers invaluable coaching tips that can easily be incorporated into your social and business skills. The results for hundreds of thousands of women have been career opportunities they never thought possible - at every stage of their career, from entry-level to the corner office! Stop making "nice girl" errors that can become career pitfalls, such as:
- Mistake #13: Avoiding office politics.
- If you don't play the game, you can't possibly win.
- Mistake #21: Multi-tasking.
- Just because you can do something, doesn't mean you should do it.
- Mistake #54: Failure to negotiate.
- Don't equate negotiation with confrontation.
- Mistake #70: Inappropriate use of social media.
- Once it's out there, it's hard to put the toothpaste back in the tube.
- Mistake #82: Asking permission. Children, not adults, ask for approval. Be direct, be confident.

Within just one year of completing college, women are earning 8% less than the men with whom they graduated. By mid-career, that number increases to more than 20%. Some women roar ahead in their careers, but so many more stagnate. How can you join those who are succeeding?
I’m a guy, not a woman, and yet I was irresistibly drawn by the book title as well as at least a third of the 133 unconscious behaviors that ultimately sabotage women (and many men).
This book will make you mad, yet it is fun to read and very practical. It could change your career trajectory. And regardless of whether you are male or female, it can equip you to help the women in your life succeed (or at least not get in their way).
By Jesse Lahey
I first read Dr. Frankel’s best-selling book over a decade ago. Her practical advice for those climbing the corporate ladder is just as relevant today. Plus, this revised and updated version covers things that weren’t even on the radar screen back then. For those women struggling to move ahead and wondering what they’re doing wrong (and what to do about it), this book is a must read!
