How to Say It for Women

Communicating with Confidence and Power Using the Language of Success

Phyllis Mindell, Ed. D.
ISBN 0-7352-0222-2

Too often, women find that their voices aren't heard in the workplace, no matter where they are in the corporate hierarchy. For many, the culprit is language; weak language hobbles women's ideas, undermines their credibility, and sabotages their success. With the powerful lessons in this book, women can transform their language - and transform themselves into strong, assertive leaders without sacrificing integrity or femininity.

Ask any group of business people or professionals what percent of their work time they spend reading. The answers will astonish: 40%, 50%, 90%! We poll all our Power and Executive Reading students and they estimate that, on average, they spend at least 50% of their work time reading. Add their salaries and benefits and you'll discover that your firm spends most of its human resource money on reading. Yet no one has had any reading instruction since sixth grade. You'd never imagine neglecting skill development in any other area, yet companies rarely offer advanced reading courses.

Reading Business Video Package

                                                                  
Dr. Phyllis Mindell designed the Reading Business video seminar for the same reasons she wrote Power Reading: to help competent readers gain efficiency and power, without resorting to the hoax of "speed reading." Indeed, Reading Business meshes perfectly with Power Reading to yield an outstanding learning experience for advanced readers at any level, in any field, at any company, anywhere in the world.
