| Summary Note |
PLAYING BIG: a ground-breaking book that gives women with the practical skills they need to find their voice and to implement the changes they want to see in themselves and in the world. Sheryl Sandberg's Lean In gave many women new awareness about the kinds of changes they need to make to become more successful; yet most women can't make these changes in themselves on command. Playing Big is a new kind of personal development book u one that provides real, practical tools to help women quiet self-doubt, find their voice, identify their dreams, unhooko from praise and criticism, unlearn counterproductive 'good girl' habits, and begin to take bold action. Women's leadership expert, Tara Mohr, sees many women who feel that they are 'playing small' in their lives and careers, who are frustrated by it, and want to 'play bigger'. Not every woman aspires to be a corporate executive, but every woman aspires to something u more influence at work; more boldness in the pursuit of their dreams; more control at home; more of the skills they need to find out what's important to them and act upon it. Tara Mohr has devised a programme proven to achieve those aims and, as a consequence, thousands of women across the world are already playing bigger. This book shows you how. Playing Big fills a major gap among women's career books; it isn't just for business women. Instead, it offers tools to help every woman play bigger u whether she's an executive, community volunteer, artist, or a stay-at-home mum. And when women play big, we start to change our world. |
