HOW TO GET MEN TO TAKE YOU SERIOUSLY
in Business and in Life
by Linda Brakeall

For women interested in a career - not just a job! For women feeling "invisible" or ignored for promotions. For managers wanting to move their organizations to the next level. Packing this book full of practical information from business attire and etiquette to sales techniques and major presentations, the authors take on the mentoring role - as they move from coach to best friend with humor and plain talking! I've read it and reread it and have recommended it to others.

"Anna Wildermuth was instrumental in developing a comprehensive dress policy for our workplace, which helped our employees identify appropriate business and casual day attire." Lee Hanson, CEO, Executive VP, Roman, Inc.

"Linda Brakeall is a gifted speaker/trainer and a truly feminine and effective woman who addresses the empowerment of women in a way that does not require women to give up their femininity." Jim Vahle, Lake Forest School of Management

This book is designed for the woman who wants to level the playing field and succeed! It's almost universal that at some time in her life every woman has felt that she's battling for respect at work and at home.

Listen to the real words of real women as they reveal their struggles, strategies, techniques and their victories!

Cokie Roberts: "For many years I felt like I was invisible to both men and women. People would talk to my husband and ignore me. One night, at a party, a man said, 'What do you do?' When I mentioned that I produced a TV show, I instantly became the center of attention. I find it horrendous that you only get respect when you do something 'important' or highly visible or have a fancy title."

Brett Butler: "It never occurred to me that I was an inferior gender until I was almost 40! I never sought 'respect.' I hoped it would be a top-tier by-product of what I did."

Linda Brakeall interviewed women of all ages, from a stay-at-home mom to a US Congressman's former Chief of Staff, all colors, shapes and sizes. Listen to their stories - in their words - and learn How To Get Men To Take You Seriously In Business And In Life!
