The Little Black Book of Success: Laws of Leadership for Black Women

by Elaine Meryl Brown

In this engaging and invaluable โ€�mentor in your pocket,โ€� three dynamic and successful black female executives share their strategies to help all black women, at any level of their careers, play the power gameโ€”and win.

Rich with wisdom, this practical gem focuses on the building blocks of true leadershipโ€”self-confidence, effective communication, collaboration, and courageโ€”while dealing specifically with stereotypes (avoid the Mammy Trap, and donโ€�t become the Angry Black Woman) and the perils of self-victimization (donโ€�t assume that every challenge occurs because you are black or female).

ย ย ย  Some leaders are born, but most leaders are madeโ€”and The Little Black Book of Success will show you how to make it to the top, one step at a time.
