From the Back Cover

You are not imagining it. Women do face unique challenges at work. The playing field is not always even, the rules are often unspoken, and the path is rarely well marked.

In Designed for Success, Dondi Scumaci gives you the tools you need to take charge of your future and achieve the success and satisfaction you deserve. Learn how to get ahead in today’s workplace and make a difference to the organizations you serve and the lives you touch—without changing who you are.

 

Designed for Success is an insightful grasp of the universal dynamics of the workplace—not only what to expect, but also how to interpret what’s happening when you’re blazing a new trail.
