Summary

From Stacey Vanek Smith, the NPR host of The Indicator and correspondent for Planet Money, comes Machiavelli for Women: Defend Your Worth, Grow Your Ambition, and Win the Workplace. It is an accessible, funny, clear-eyed, and practical guide for how women can apply the principles of 16th-century philosopher Niccolò Machiavelli to their work lives and finally shatter the glass ceiling. Using The Prince as a guide and with charm and wit, Smith applies Renaissance politics to the 21st century, and demonstrates how women can take and maintain power in careers where they have long been cast as second-best.
