maco reviewed Women Don't Ask by Sara Laschever
Review of "Women Don't Ask" on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
Read it. Definitely read it. I handed my copy off to another woman I know within 12 hours of finishing reading it, because you absolutely must read it. If you're a woman, you work with women, you manage women, you are managed by a woman, you have a wife, or you have a daughter: READ IT!
The statistics and research are very interesting and demonstrate the high impact of how we're socialised from a young age and how that can limit or expand successes throughout our lives. Throughout, there is advice on how to mitigate or undo some of the damage socialisation has done. There's also a bit on how women's negotiation styles can actually work better than men's--if the other person has the same style.
