Your ultimate playbook to navigating power, perception, and prejudice in the workplaceBy Nicole S. Palmer
Length6h 23m
About this audiobook
Being a Black woman in corporate America comes with microaggressions that feel macro, having your competence constantly questioned, and being forced to work twice as hard for half the recognition. Plus the rules are unwritten, the playing field is anything but level, and the goalposts move without warning. So if you’re feeling stuck, sidelined, or exhausted from trying to excel in spaces that weren’t built for you, it’s because you need more than just motivation to navigate the uneven power dynamics of these spaces. You need a game plan.
And Playing the Game While Black Womaning in Corporate America™ provides exactly that. Tools and strategies for Black women who are done pretending that talent alone is enough to succeed in hostile environments.
