I just inherited a new team and was feeling a bit lost on what to do. How long do you give existing employees "space"? How do I bring on new people and keep the team happy? How do I build my team's culture and attitude? This book answered all of those questions.

A lot of the information is common sense, particularly if you've been in the business world for as long as I have. I am a big fan of all the testimonials and bits of advice from women who have been there and succeeded. I love how these ladies give you permission to move people on if they're not a good fit or bringing your team down as well. It's a delicate balance between nurturing and growing people who deserve it and cutting your losses on people who don't.

I loved the stories. They shared great positive and negative experiences and answered a lot of questions I didn't realize that I had! Great idea and gave me a lot of ideas to try with my team!!

This was really good- got me all pumped up about being a boss (of sorts) without feeling bad about it. The segments that had interviews with female managers were either hit or miss- some were good to hear, others made me squeamish. I would recommend it to any woman newly put in a position of supervising others.

Some good material, although slightly outdated by the time I read it in 2022 (published 2006). Still worth a read!

I hated to buy this book because it's so bloody pink. I want to believe that managing is managing, no matter what your gender. But I know that's not true. And this was the only book I saw, while browsing, that talked about going from staff to management and how awkward that can be, how much it can affect you socially, how your need to be taken seriously can change the way you are with people. In short, it addressed my concerns pretty head on. The book itself isn't quite as patronizing as it looks. There's none of this that isn't fairly intuitive, but somehow, it helps to know that I'm not in this alone. The advice is good--- not surprising, but solid.

This book is totally right. The title explains it all, either you were a normal employee or a boss, this is how you treat people around you at work without acting bitchy, nor rude or moody.

The book is light-written, straight, funny, precise, will make you think and reconsider your attitude, will trigger your errors and trust me this book will change you and it will work.

This book is an easy read and straight to the point with its information. I liked the added passages of real life examples given at the end of each chapter. The authors reached out to women CEO's, managers, authors, and business owners to give the book real life examples of the concepts expressed. If you're not a manager/boss/business owner, this still can help you develop a strong mindset in the workplace. Will probably read again.

I found parts of this book really helpful. At the time I bought it I was struggling with people discussing me behind my back at work after a new promotion. This book helped me move beyond focusing on that and getting back to doing my job well.

This book did have some good points, but it felt overly focused on jobs where there was a lot of client interaction and the advice seemed to have a lot to do with that. It also felt too casual sometimes in a way that was off-putting, but I can't describe how. Overall, good advice, but somewhat limited.

I really liked this book. I found at my local B&N and got a lot out of it in spite of the silly title. Lots of good advice that I found really helpful especially as a first time manager.

Great book. I got some very good tips that I applied and saw good results.

A should-read book on leadership and management for women in business.
