Women Don't Ask : Negotiation and the Gender Divide by Linda Babcock and Sara Laschever
"I found this book incredibly inspiring and inciteful and it helped me to build up the courage
and skills to fight for and get a badly deserved promotion.
The great part about this book is that it doesn't try to teach a woman to negotiate like a man. It explores and validates the ways that women negotiate and how that does and does not work in a male oriented environment. It explores WHY men and women negotiate (or not) the way they do.
I found it to be a great self esteem booster without being coddling. Full of facts and research results but easy to read and even rivetting. Highly recommended for ANY woman (and it would be...helpful for men as well)" (A Reader from Chicago, Illinois USA)

and formulate a workable plan. I finished the book in two evenings, but this one is definitely a book where I'll re-read chapters to pick up on ideas that I perhaps didn't capture the first time. I loved how she related her path including family and work associates, and the lessons along the way are invaluable. ...She gives me hope. The only downside to this book was that it should have been longer. ...I am off to put what lessons I did learn to good use!" (A Reader from Baltimore, Maryland USA)
The 8th Habit : From Effectiveness to Greatness by Stephen R. Covey "The original seven habits of highly successful people are still relevant, but Covey, author of the mega-bestseller of that title, says that the new Information/Knowledge Worker Age, exemplified by the Internet, calls for an eighth habit to achieve personal and organizational excellence: "Find your voice and inspire others to find theirs." Covey sees leadership "as a choice to deal with people in a way that will communicate to them their worth and potential so clearly they will come to see it in themselves." His holistic approach starts with developing one's own voice, one's "unique personal significance." The bulk of the book details how, after finding your own voice, you can inspire others and create a workplace where people feel engaged. This includes establishing trust, searching for third alternatives (not a compromise between your way and my way, but a third, better way) and developing a shared vision." (From Publishers Weekly)
