Learning From Other Women: How to Benefit From the Knowledge, Wisdom, and Experience of Female Mentors

For women who want to enhance their careers and lives using a virtually untapped resource--other women. Just because mentor begins with "men" doesn't mean that mentors must BE men. In fact, many women are now discovering the enormous rewards of having other women as their mentors. It makes perfect sense. After all, women share common experiences, must overcome common difficulties--and only women can completely empathize with other women. Learning From Other Women is a breakthrough book written to encourage women to reach up, reach out, and take advantage of the deep resources of other women. Readers will discover how to: * go beyond myths and fears that have kept them from reaching out to other women at work * initiate and maintain learning relationships with other women * anticipate and avoid challenges to constructive women-to-women learning relationships * benefit from the knowledge that only another woman can impart, and more.
