Gail Evans really gets the game
Gail Evans does it again in this illuminating book for all women who feel they need a boost in the workplace (and who doesn't feel that way?) Her straight shooting advice reminds us that we can be our own best friend, and that teamwork can help boost the fortunes of all women (including oneself!).

Insightful!
Even if you're not a team player, this book will draft you in the first round. In plain language, author Gail Evans outlines the corporate playing field. She clearly marks the opponents, the cheerleaders and the goals women must conquer to score points in the corporate game. The book is at its best when Evans uses real-life examples to demonstrate the dramas, the discrimination and the disadvantages women face while working. Like a video of game highlights and lowlights, her examples are pulled from the pages of her own agenda book and e-mail box. She provides concrete tips to tell women how to establish and cultivate formal and informal networks. Although she does address the tug-of-war women survive while balancing home and work commitments, the book could have scored more points on the home front. Maybe Evans will do that for us next time ¿ meanwhile We recommend this book to women on all rungs of the corporate ladder.

Timeless lessons, common sense rules
Gail Evans description of the business environment is insightful. I have been gathering as much information on careers and commonalities for success as I can read. This book is at the top of my list for tips on how to be successful as it is filled with common sense tips that otherwise might be forgotten.
