That'S What She Said: What Men Need To Know

Review: That's What She Said : What Men Need to Know and Women Need to Tell Them About Working Together


An instant classic. It's a must-read for two groups of people: men and women * Roger McNamee, venture capitalist * Joanne Lipman leaves her soapbox at home, rolls up her sleeves, and provides real solutions to complex problems. Her valuable insights are a tool kit for men and women to not only work alongside each other but to bring out each other's best * Glen Mazzara, Exec Producer, THE SHIELD and THE WALKING DEAD * A bold statement . . . This book goes a step further than Sheryl Sandberg's bestselling Lean In and challenges both men and women to examine their own prejudices and actively reshape work cultures to be more welcoming to women * Publishers Weekly (starred review) * Attention, good guys: if you want to advocate for women but don't want to be villainised, this book is for you. It's a rare guide on championing gender equality that you'll actually enjoy reading - and it's full of strategies for improving your workplace * Adam Grant, bestselling author of ORIGINALS and OPTION B with Sheryl Sandberg * An urgently needed exploration of how men - alongside women - can close the gender gap at work and in life. Now, more than ever, we need this book and its real, pragmatic solutions. By rooting her insights in real-world examples, extensive academic research, and stories that are a joy to read, she has provided an essential primer on how we can all succeed together * Charles Duhigg, bestselling author of THE POWER OF HABIT and SMARTER FASTER BETTER * I know what you're thinking: 'Not another career guide-cum-manifesto, telling us to "woman up" and demand more money.' But that isn't what Lipman says. Instead, she uses data, reams of it, to expose how the system is rigged against women. She then calls for men to join the fight to make the workplace more equal. Campaigning for equality has to be a mixed sport; instead of women 'leaning in', they need to get their male colleagues listening . . . Reading Win Win may make you feel angry -- a punch-the-wall rage -- but, as Lipman notes, anger won't persuade more men to join Team Equality * SUNDAY TIMES STYLE MAGAZINE *
