Download or read book That s What She Said written by Joanne Lipman and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Going beyond the message of Lean In and The Confidence Code, Gannett’s Chief Content Officer contends that to achieve parity in the office, women don’t have to change—men do—and in this inclusive and realistic handbook, offers solutions to help professionals solve gender gap issues and achieve parity at work. Companies with more women in senior leadership perform better by virtually every financial measure, and women employees help boost creativity and can temper risky behavior—such as the financial gambles behind the 2008 economic collapse. Yet in the United States, ninety-five percent of Fortune 500 chief executives are men, and women hold only seventeen percent of seats on corporate boards. More men are reaching across the gender divide, genuinely trying to reinvent the culture and transform the way we work together. Despite these good intentions, fumbles, missteps, frustration, and misunderstanding continue to inflict real and lasting damage on women’s careers. What can the Enron scandal teach us about the way men and women communicate professionally? How does brain circuitry help explain men’s fear of women’s emotions at work? Why did Kimberly Clark blindly have an all-male team of executives in charge of their Kotex tampon line? In That’s What She Said, veteran media executive Joanne Lipman raises these intriguing questions and more to find workable solutions that individual managers, organizations, and policy makers can employ to make work more equitable and rewarding for all professionals. Filled with illuminating anecdotes, data from the most recent relevant studies, and stories from Lipman’s own journey to the top of a male-dominated industry, That’s What She Said is a book about success that persuasively shows why empowering women as true equals is an essential goal for us all—and offers a roadmap for getting there.

Reclaiming the derogatory cultural barb "that’s what she said," this stunning book celebrates strong female leadership throughout history and empowers current and future generations to find their voices and inspire change in their communities.
Download or read book That s What She Said written by T. J. Jefferson and published by Crown Archetype. This book was released on 2009-10-13 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book was called Everything Men Understand About Women. Upon opening it, the reader found 100 blank pages. Get it? Very funny. But it gave T. J. Jefferson an idea. If men know nothing about the fairer sex, then why not go straight to the source? After all, if your toilet is backed up, you don't call your dentist, you call a plumber. So he asked strangers (and even some celebrities, such as Madonna, Shakira, Demi Moore, and Cameron Diaz) to fill the blank pages of his book. In That's What She Said, Jefferson shares 100-plus tips he's gathered from women of all ages and backgrounds in a collection of entries in their own words that are offbeat, funny, sometimes mean, often poignant–but always honest. For men, it's not a book on how to get a woman to go home with you but on how to keep her attention once you have it. And for women, think of it as an entertaining look at what other ladies are going through. You may find vindication ("amen, sister") or put it down, relieved that you aren' t "as crazy as her" or that your man isn't a complete cad. Organized by topics, including love, sex, beauty, lying, and listening, this is the ultimate look into the mind of today's modern woman.

Book excerpt: Now a major motion picture, starring Carey Mulligan and Zoe Kazan "An instant classic of investigative journalism...‘All the President’s Men’ for the Me Too era." — Carlos Lozada, The Washington Post From Pulitzer Prize-winning journalists Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey, the untold story of their investigation of Harvey Weinstein and its consequences for the #MeToo movement For years, reporters had tried to get to the truth about Harvey Weinstein’s treatment of women. Rumors of wrongdoing had long circulated, and in 2017, when Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey began their investigation for the New York Times, his name was still synonymous with power. But during months of confidential interviews with actresses, former Weinstein employees, and other sources, many disturbing and long-buried allegations were unearthed, and a web of onerous secret payouts and nondisclosure agreements was revealed. When Kantor and Twohey were finally able to convince sources to go on the record, a dramatic final showdown between Weinstein and the New York Times was set in motion. In the tradition of great investigative journalism, She Said tells a thrilling story about the power of truth and reveals the inspiring and affecting journeys of the women who spoke up—for the sake of other women, for future generations, and for themselves.

Marina Keegan’s star was on the rise when she graduated magna cum laude from Yale in May 2012. She had a play that was to be produced at the New York Fringe Festival and a job waiting for her at The New Yorker. Tragically, five days after graduation, Marina died in a car crash. Marina left behind a rich, deeply expansive trove of writing that, like her title essay, captures the hope, uncertainty, and possibility of her generation. Her short story “Cold Pastoral” was published on NewYorker.com. Her essay “Even Artichokes Have Doubts” was excerpted in the Financial Times, and her book was the focus of a Nicholas Kristof column in The New York Times. Millions of her contemporaries have responded to her work on social media. As Marina wrote: “We can still do anything. We can change our minds. We can start over…We’re so young. We can’t, we MUST not lose this sense of possibility because in the end, it’s all we have.” The Opposite of Loneliness is an unforgettable collection of Marina’s essays and stories that articulates the universal struggle all of us face as we figure out what we aspire to be and how we can harness our talents to impact the world. “How do you mourn the loss of a fiery talent that was barely a tendril before it was snuffed out? Answer: Read this book. A clear-eyed observer of human nature, Keegan could take a clever idea...and make it something beautiful” (People).

Download or read book He Said She Said written by Erin Kelly and published by Minotaur Books. This book was released on 2017-06-06 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A tour de force – a gripping, twisting, furiously clever read that asks all the right questions, and keeps you guessing until the very end. I loved it." — Ruth Ware "Haunting. Mesmerizing. Unforgettable." — Gillian Flynn In the summer of 1999, Kit and Laura travel to a festival in Cornwall to see a total eclipse of the sun. Kit is an eclipse chaser; Laura has never seen one before. Young and in love, they are certain this will be the first of many they’ll share. But in the hushed moments after the shadow passes, Laura interrupts a man and a woman. She knows that she saw something terrible. The man denies it. It is her word against his. The victim seems grateful. Months later, she turns up on their doorstep like a lonely stray. But as her gratitude takes a twisted turn, Laura begins to wonder—did she trust the wrong person? 15 years later, Kit and Laura married are living under new names and completely off the digital grid: no Facebook, only rudimentary cell phones, not in any directories. But as the truth catches up to them, they realize they can no longer keep the past in the past. From Erin Kelly, queen of the killer twist, He Said/She Said is a gripping tale of the lies we tell to save ourselves, the truths we cannot admit, and how far we will go to make others believe our side of the story.

Book excerpt: Do Not Resuscitate. D N R. Is this what it'll take, sticking a front yard lawn sign into the mud to get the entire world to understand I want a day off, from everything? The daily broadcasts, past, present, Orwellian future that recharges itself faster than a twenty four hour news cycle. Everything.Let's face it, whatever he says that she says that I said keeps everybody in business. Is it me or am I hearing "close enough for now" too often? Imagine the ensuing chaos, the incredibly long lines at mental health clinics across the nation if everybody settled for "close enough" and "good enough" instead of reaching for the stars. Would you want to sleep in an apartment building whose architectural framework was built on the guidelines of "good enough, for now"?I understand how trying to cross a bridge before reaching it might cause one trouble but waiting until the last possible moment to pay the tender isn't my way of ensuring a worry-free float down the river. Is it yours?Making your way through life at the speed of a sloth might work for some but, for anyone who has a liquid ounce of creative juice on the brain, skipping between the raindrops, expecting to remain dry until reaching your front doorstep, is a recipe for disaster.This book is an observational essay written with the foreknowledge that whatever I say will be repeated differently by him and, in another way, by her. Today's rules of candor, the self evident right to be yourself, have become a stage prop rigged to open up a path to dialog. Everybody wants to join the party, attendance on a resume will look good, and simply because the invitation was lost in the mail doesn't mean you're not welcome.We live in a freelance, divided state of interruption and misinterpretation. That's Not What I Said is my essay of opinions, my observations, my humorous attempt at getting you to see that as much as you want to believe we're not alike, we are. After reading this book, hearing you reach similar conclusion, of course, in your own royalty-free words in place of mine, let's hope we don't sue one another because of copy write infringement.And then what?Poof. I mean, what do you expect? You're standing in your front yard again. You know the neighbors are watching from their living room window, they can see you talking to yourself as clearly as the raindrops dripping from your nose. You don't have to hear what they're saying to one another because you've heard it before."There he goes again, that damn fool, sticking his DNR sign into the mud."He said she said I said. Still, you know they've got one thing correct. You are talking to yourself. And you already know that at the next patio barbecue they'll comment on how they saw your disheveled framework of a human being standing in the rain, muddied and mumbling nonsense to yourself exactly the way you did the last time and the time before that. Of all the neighborhoods across America you had to move into a cluster of amateur lip readers.You'll let them speak their minds, perhaps suggest that they too should write an observational essay and submit it to the local newspaper's opinion page editor. And after? When they're done editing the rain-washed words that had pooled at your feet, you give your response. "That's Not What I Said".
