An appendix provides brief highlights of the lives of an additional 29 communication scholars.1320L

Say what you really mean! : how women can learn to speak up / by Johanyak, Debra,1953-author.(CARDINAL)482184;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Most of us claim to value honesty and openness in communication, but we often settle for insincerity and ambiguity. We valiantly try to say what we mean, all the while using words, attitudes, and expressions that sabotage the real message. Results can be frustrating, or even devastating. A recent workplace report claims that 25% of the business sector experience communication problems on the job. The actual percentage is probably much higher. Most large companies recruiting and hiring employees are looking for effective communication as one of the top three skills, in addition to being a team player and having job expertise. Knowing what to say, as well as how and when to say it, are critical factors in communicating about important issues. Finding the courage to give an honest response can give you a bad case of nerves or insomnia. Yet, keeping quiet or minimizing a message can be potentially problematic. In romantic relationships, avoiding sensitive topics may seem like the right thing to do. But chances are women are lighting the fuse to a cache of fireworks that’s bound to explode sooner or later, ruining any chance of a truly meaningful relationship. Frank and focused discussion can build positive interactions and mutually respectful relationships.

That's what she said : what men need to know (and women need to tell them) about working together / by Lipman, Joanne,author.(CARDINAL)401906;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 248-297).Introduction : Men aren't the enemy -- The secret lives of women (a primer for men) -- She'll make you more successful -- We're all a little bit sexist -- The twelve most terrifying words in the English language -- She's pretty sure you don't respect her -- She deserves a raise. But she won't ask for it. -- Blind auditions : solving for bias, emotion, and other stuff you can't control -- Invisible women : the world's greatest untapped resource -- The next generation : the Harvard experiment -- The best place in the world to be a woman? -- Conclusion : The future is now -- Cheat sheet : tips and takeaways for men--and women.A recent Harvard study found that corporate "diversity training" has actually made the gender gap worse -- in part because it makes men feel demonized. Women, meanwhile, have been told that closing the gender gap is up to them: they need to speak up, to be more confident, to demand to be paid what they're worth. They discuss these issues amongst themselves all the time. What they don't do is talk to men about it. It's time to end that disconnect. More people in leadership roles are genuinely trying to transform the way we work together, because there's abundant evidence that companies with more women in senior leadership perform better by virtually every measure. Yet despite good intentions, men often lack the tools they need, leading to fumbles, missteps, frustration and misunderstanding that continue to inflict real and lasting damage on women's careers. Filled with anecdotes, data from the most recent studies, and stories from her own journey to the top of a male-dominated industry, Joanne Lipman shows how we can win by reaching across the gender divide.Outlines anecdotal solutions for harmonious working relationships between the sexes, citing the unique contributions of professional women and how their male counterparts can implement a healthier business culture that bridges gender gaps.
