If you want to start your own business or just perform better in your current position, Yes You Can: How to Start, Operate & Grow a Business While Developing Yourself and Pursuing Your Personal Goals is an excellent self-help guide. It is a detailed resource geared toward Black women and starts at the very beginning of not only building your own business, but also strengthening yourself and interpersonal relationships with those you work with. It's just the book for a person with drive and ambition who wants to do their own thing. Coupled with tips and guidelines, it focuses on the things that women are concerned with in the work place: communicating with others, conducting meetings, and presenting a professional image. It also covers well-being and subjects such as handling stress, learning to delegate, and identifying things that take away from productivity. Through the four stages of this book, "The Start Up and Beginning Stage," "The Operation and Management Stage," "The Growing and Expansion Stage," and "The Personal Development and Actualization Stage," one can easily feel less overwhelmed by the aspects of starting a business and actually know their dream is obtainable. It is not only an educational read, but also a motivational one which should be read by those interested in becoming entrepreneurs. Reviewed by Mz. Melody for Loose Leaves Book Review
