Nice Girls Dont Get the Corner Office Frankelov Lois P. (2026)

Since 2004, Dr. Lois P. Frankels Nice Girls Dont Get the Corner Office has been an essential resource for women seeking advice and empowerment to stop sabotaging their careers and advance in the workplace. This completely updated and revised third edition addresses the challenges faced by women at work today, even as the workplace has changed over the past twenty years. In this New York Times bestseller, Dr. Frankel explains how the nice girl mentality consists of behaviors learned in girlhood that can ultimately undermine women as adults, and she offers tools for eliminating the unconscious mistakes that may be holding readers back. The book covers such issues as believing negative self-talk, fearing that assertiveness will seem too strong, maintaining poor boundaries when working from home, and doing other peoples work instead of leading. Readers learn how to take control of their careers without being controlling, speak their minds while earning respect, and pursue their ambitions without fear or shame.
