Description
Introducing a groundbreaking book that tackles the modern workplace's hidden challenges: 'The Glass Wall'. This 272-page insightful read published by Profile Books in 2016, dives deep into the complexities of workplace communication between men and women. While the glass ceiling remains a widely discussed topic, the glass wall presents an equally significant barrier—one that prevents meaningful dialogues and mutual understanding.

In 'The Glass Wall', authors Unerman and Jacob share practical advice drawn from their own successful careers in male-dominated industries, along with insights from over one hundred interviews with professionals across various fields. This essential guide illuminates the specific cultural expectations and communication styles that can hinder women's career advancement.
Readers will discover actionable tactics to enhance their professional journey, focusing on vital skills such as ambition, resilience, creativity, and visibility.

Embrace your potential, break down barriers, and transform your work environment into one of inclusivity and collaboration.

Description:
Never mind the glass ceiling. In the workplace today there's a glass wall. Men and women can see each other clearly through the divide, but they don't speak the same language or have the same cultural expectations. And as a result, women and their careers are suffering.
With more women than ever in the workforce, but still too few in the boardroom, now is the time to address the assumptions and miscommunication holding women back. This book gives women the tools to master them. It's not about working harder or being better than men: real concerted success for women comes from having a range of tactics up your sleeve that you can use to take control of any situation. Drawing on Unerman and Jacob's own experience of forging stellar careers in male-dominated businesses, as well as over a hundred interviews with men and women from a range of organisations, The Glass Wall provides clear, smart and easy-to apply strategies for success. From unlocking ambition and developing resilience to nurturing creativity and getting noticed, these are the skills that both managers and managed need to know to help break down that wall and create better workplaces for all.
