Becoming a Professional Woman

This book is a terrific guide for women in the workplace, no matter where they currently are on their career path. I found it to be very reader friendly and as an employee of a Fortune 100 company, I would welcome in-house training on any number of the topics that are covered. I especially enjoyed working through the exercises provided for the chapters on overcoming fear and overcoming negativity. I highly recommend this book as a useful guide to women who are on their own journeys to professional as well as personal development.

On Being The Professional Woman

Obviously you can find books on professionalism for women, but I definitely thought this one was unique. It gave the viewpoints of 25 different women who are leaders in their respective fields. That alone made it a fast and valuable read. I could see this guide as a training tool for corporations, the information in it is relevant and up-to-date. Every woman colleague I know would appreciate having this in her business library.

They encourage us to find the strength, confidence and inner power to be the best we can be.

The Professional Woman

This book is sensational to say the least. Every woman should read this book. It is one of the most interesting books I have ever read. It is very helpful and useful in my business and personal life. I use it as a guideline almost daily in my business. If you only buy one book this year buy this one.

A must read for any woman

Great book. Very useful for any woman, regardless of social or economic status; whether in corporate, retail, construction or in high school. This book is cleverly compiled by viewpoints of 25 different professional women each covering a chapter, (which I found made for a more interesting read). The topics range from etiquette, to assertiveness skills, managing finances, marketing yourself (by dressing professionally etc.,)When you read this book, it will not only give you the tools to BECOMING a professional, but if you already are a professional, you may find that the tools will serve as useful reminders for us to ACT more professionally. Unfortunately, during the hustle and bustle of surviving as women in a competitive environment, we forget to act professionally. For example, we often confuse being assertive with being aggressive. A great holiday gift. It will definitely propel the reader to make a new year's resolution to become a professional woman in 2006.
