A clever workplace manifesto ... it also works as straightforward
career advice: there's a lot of power, and joy, in saying no
*The Times best business and technology books, 2022*
Say 'yes' to your dreams and the long-term potential of your
organization. How? By learning how to say 'no.' THE NO CLUB is a
long overdue manifesto on gender equality in the workplace, a
practical playbook with tips you can put into action immediately,
and the story of four women whose collective wisdom on how to
sustain personal success is simply priceless
*Angela Duckworth, New York Times bestselling author of GRIT*
In many organizations, women are in the minority but end up doing
the majority of the thankless jobs. This important book helps women
learn when and how to say no, and should be a wake-up call to
management: give every man a yellow pad and tell them to learn to
take notes. Better yet, change the way that work is allocated and
rewarded
*Richard Thaler, recipient of the Nobel Prize in Economics and New
York Times bestselling coauthor of NUDGE*
Unfair treatment of women in the workplace has been well-reported,
but there's a lack of available literature on what women are
actually supposed to do about it. THE NO CLUB is the answer we've
been waiting for-these experts and researchers explain what to look
for, how to advocate for yourself, and how to empower others to do
the same. This is an achievable and overdue call to action for the
system to change
*Emily Chang, bestselling author of BROTOPIA: BREAKING UP THE BOYS’
CLUB OF SILICON VALLEY*
This is a critical read for women who inevitably find themselves
balancing their personal goals with endless dead-end tasks in the
workplace. This book not only gives women validation to say 'no' to
tedious work, but clearly lays out how caving to these pressures
only serves to derail their full potential

I am in a No Club inspired by the authors of this amazing book!

examples, advice, and research. I'll be recommending it as
essential reading to colleagues, students, and friends
