Negative Positive
Title: Read this if you are a woman manager looking for excuses.
Review: If you are a woman looking for a practical guide to help you be an effective supervisor/manager in today's work world, look someplace else. This book once again puts women in the position of being a victim. Montgomery writes about ways to compensate because we are women, which is to make us victims or to say we are otherwise handicapped and need special considerations. We aren't. And we don't. I was disappointed in Montgomery's book. There are some traits women have accepted as fact down through the years that are not inherent, just learned behavior. I was hoping Montgomery's book would identify some of those traits and talk about how to overcome them, not justify their continued use. I will not recommend this book to anyone. Which is sad because I want to support the efforts any woman makes to get a handle on this issue.
Is the review positive or negative?
