The Power Code

release date: Jun 13, 2023
The Power Code
Power is not working—for women, for men, or for the world. We don’t need to remake women. We need to remake power. New York Times bestselling authors Katty Kay and Claire Shipman are on a mission to reclaim power for women. In the wake of sweeping changes in the way we work, the veteran journalists challenge preconceived notions of what power is and what it’s good for, along with the insidious, mostly hidden structures of the status quo that hold women back. What started as a straightforward examination of best practices has become a manifesto for a new form of power, a distinctly female version that is already emerging in workplaces, in politics, and on the home front. It’s a version that is more appealing to women (and most men as well). It offers women a blueprint for shaping their own professional futures, maximizing their impact for the benefit of others, and experiencing the real joy that comes from taking the reins and influencing outcomes. Writing from their own lived experiences, Kay and Shipman interviewed dozens of women of all ages, races, and backgrounds around the world, as well as cutting-edge academic researchers. Taken together, these perspectives offer a clear-eyed and hopeful redesign of the workplace and our relationships at home, one that puts women in a remade and modernized seat of power. And now is exactly the right moment for women to step into their power. What’s at stake is much greater than the next job; it’s about the need for a new vision of what power can be, for a new code that focuses not simply on hierarchy, on having power over others, but also on purpose, on what power can achieve. Both a prescription for societal change and a pro-fessional guidebook for individual women, The Power Code shows you how to leverage the power you already have, find new sources of power in yourself and your community, and remodel your workplace and your home-life to produce less ego, more joy, and maximum impact.

Guia da garota confiante
Garotas podem dominar o mundo – tudo de que elas precisam é confiança. É um grande paradoxo: as meninas estão conseguindo alcançar metas e posições como nunca antes, mas, ainda assim, permanecem consumidas pela sensação da dúvida, preocupando-se constantemente com sua aparência, o que outras pessoas pensam, se devem ou não tentar fazer parte de um time esportivo na escola, o porquê de não estarem conseguindo notas "perfeitas" e com quantos likes e seguidores têm on-line. Em Guia da garota confiante, Katty Kay e Claire Shipman utilizam pesquisas e ciência, assim como métodos comprovados de mudança comportamental, para alcançar as meninas no estágio em que elas mais precisam – a pré-adolescência e a adolescência. Repleto de listas divertidas, desafios, quizzes e técnicas comportamentais, Guia da garota confiante é destinado à construção de autoconfiança e empoderamento, ensinando às futuras mulheres a como lidar com as possiblidades de fracasso, abraçar os riscos e ser a versão mais autêntica possível de si mesmas. Empoderador e divertido, Guia da garota confiante oferece às meninas o essencial para que se tornem corajosas, destemidas e efetivamente prontas para enfrentar qualquer coisa. "Confiança, as autoras sugerem, não surge da perfeição, mas, sim, a partir da construção de uma base sólida de autoconsciência, conhecimento e resiliência – e esse é sempre um trabalho em andamento." – Publishers Weekly "É este o livro que toda garota precisa para realizar seus sonhos." – Laurie Hernandez, ginasta medalhista de ouro dos EUA. "Há uma ausência de livros sobre este assunto para adolescentes e pré-adolescentes, e Guia da garota confiante preenche, de forma inestimável, a lacuna. As meninas vão gostar de como o livro fala diretamente com elas, não aos seus pais, apresentando histórias inspiradoras de meninas." – Booklist "Todos os dias trabalho com meninas que sofrem por não terem as ferramentas que este livro oferece. Guia da garota confiante disponibiliza dicas e ferramentas para adolescentes e pré-adolescentes para que sejam capazes de administrar tudo, desde estresses e falta de confiança a complicadas situações sociais." – Phyllis L. Fagell, conselheiro escolar, autor e colaborador da seção Parenting no The Washington Post

Codul încrederii

Codul încrederii
Bestseller New York Times „Kay și Shipman oferă femeilor sfaturi practice și perspectiva unui viitor mai promițător." – Sheryl Sandberg, COO la Facebook și autoarea bestsellerului Lean In Încrederea. O vrem. Avem nevoie de ea. Dar poate fi teribil de enigmatică și de greu de atins. Autoarele analizează această calitate esențială, eluzivă și greșit înțeleasă și propun un program pentru a o face mai prezentă în viețile noastre. Este încrederea în sine codificată în ADN-ul câtorva norocoși sau poate fi deprinsă de oricine? Cum poate fi ea exprimată cel mai bine? Ce e mai importantă: încrederea în sine sau competența? De ce atât de multe femei, chiar și cele mai de succes, sunt chinuite de îndoială de sine? Există o modalitate secretă de a-ți canaliza încrederea în sine? În Codul încrederii, Katty Kay și Claire Shipman călătoresc la frontierele neuroștiințelor în căutarea genei încrederii în sine și dezvăluie noi și surprinzătoare cercetări privind rădăcinile acesteia în creierul uman. Discută cu psihologi de renume internațional, care ne arată cum putem deveni mai încrezătoare în noi însene dacă trecem pur și simplu la acțiune și ne asumăm riscuri, precum și felul în care acele acțiuni ne schimbă forma fizică. Intervievează femei care ocupă poziții de conducere în politică, sport, armată și arte ca să afle cum și-au valorificat această resursă elementară. Examinează modul în care lipsa de încredere în sine ne influențează calitățile de conducători, succesul și împlinirea în viață. În concluzie, susțin autoarele, deși este parțial influențată de genetică, încrederea în sine nu e o stare psihologică fixă. N-o vei descoperi gândind pozitiv sau spunându-ți că ești perfectă așa cum ești. N-ai s-o găsești nici dacă o simulezi, trăgându-ți umerii înapoi și scoțând pieptul în față. Dar trebuie să faci o alegere: să renunți la perfecționism și la tendința de a face pe plac celor din jur și să-ți asumi riscurile și lecțiile eșecului. Codul încrederii demonstrează că, ascultându-și cele mai bune instincte și îndrăznind să fie autentice, femeile pot simți puterea transformatoare a unei vieți trăite cu încredere în sine.

Sicura di te. Rischiare, sbagliare e vivere felice e imperfetta come sei!

The Confidence Code
Following the success of Lean In and Why Women Should Rule the World, the authors of the bestselling Womenomics provide an informative and practical guide to understanding the importance of confidence—and learning how to achieve it—for women of all ages and at all stages of their career. Working women today are better educated and more well qualified than ever before. Yet men still predominate in the corporate world. In The Confidence Code, Claire Shipman and Katty Kay argue that the key reason is confidence. Combining cutting-edge research in genetics, gender, behavior, and cognition—with examples from their own lives and those of other successful women in politics, media, and business—Kay and Shipman go beyond admonishing women to "lean in."Instead, they offer the inspiration and practical advice women need to close the gap and achieve the careers they want and deserve.

Womenomics

release date: Jun 02, 2009
Womenomics
You are not alone. Finally, here is a book that gets to the heart of what professional women want. You''ve probably been loath to admit it, but like most of us, you have had enough of the sixty-hour workweeks, the day-care dash, and the vacations that never get taken. You don''t want to quit, you want to work—but on your own terms and in ways that make it possible to have a life as well. Women have power. In Womenomics, journalists Shipman and Kay deal in facts, not stereotypes, providing a fresh perspective on the largely hidden power that women have in today''s marketplace. Why? Companies with more women managers are more profitable. Women do more of the buying. A talent shortage looms. Younger generations want to work flexibly, too. It all adds up to a workplace revolution that is great news for professional women—not to mention men and businesses as well. As Brenda Barnes, CEO of Sara Lee, notes: “Companies need to recognize that this kind of flexibility offers employees the ability to manage and balance their own careers and lives, which in turn improves productivity and employee morale.” This new way of thinking and working is all the more valuable in a recession, as companies begin offering flexible schedules, four-day workweeks, and extended vacations as a way to avoid layoffs, save costs, and still reward employees. It is personal. Womenomics does more than marshal the evidence of this historic shift. It also shows women how to redefine success, be productive, and build satisfying careers that don''t require an all-or-nothing lifestyle. Most appealing are the candid personal anecdotes from Shipman''s and Kay''s own experiences and the stories they have gathered from professional women around the country who are coping with the same issues. It is possible. Shipman and Kay don''t waste time on what women can''t do or can''t have. Instead, they show women how to chart an empowering, exhilarating course to a richer life. Inspiring, practical, and persuasive, Womenomics offers a groundbreaking blueprint for changing the way you live and work—with advice, guidance, and fact-based support that proves you don''t have to do it all to have it all.
