Mustang Sallies by Fawn Germer

Author: Fawn Germer

This is the women’s leadership classic showing you how to tap into your inner leader and take charge when others are pressuring you to go along to get along.

Award-winning journalist Fawn Germer has written an engaging, provocative guide for women determined to charge ahead and succeed on their own terms. Based on original interviews with more than 50 world-famous trailblazers-from Hillary Clinton to Erin Brockovich to Martina Navratilova and Susan Sarandon.

Now, every woman can harness the tools to becoming a Mustang Sally: – Be comfortable with discomfort – Don’t sell out-compromise – Win arguments without making enemies – Manage the emotional challenges of leaving the herd behind – Create a sisterhood of support The world can slow a woman down, but the words of these wise mustangs hold the key to inspiration, motivation, and personal achievement.

From Publishers Weekly: Mustangs are wild, tough and agile. Mustang Sallies are too, says one-time Washington Post reporter Germer (Hard Won Wisdom). They don’t go along to get along at work, and that can bring troubles.

Germer’s advice, based on her own experience and her interviews with women as diverse as Hillary Rodham Clinton, Martina Navratilova and Susan Sarandon, is: Don’t mute yourself, be bold, “take your power and use it for yourself.”
