520 $a"In this look at why many women fail to move ahead in business, psychologist and executive coach Condren argues that it is not the glass ceiling or male chauvinism that holds us back, but the socially sanctioned belief that women can't be both ambitious and happy. She bluntly urges women to renounce traditionally feminine qualities--being nice, having a balanced life, being a team player, and other self-sabotaging behavior--and openly, forcefully pursue our ambitions. The book identifies the common traps women fall into and provides the tools for escaping them. It provides strategies for changing ingrained patterns and learning to take the risks that bring big pay-offs; standing up to people when necessary; acting tough even if it brings disapproval from others; and taking credit for one's ideas and accomplishments.--From publisher description."--From source other than the Library of Congress
