Mistakes I Made at Work
Jessica Bacal interviews twenty-five successful women about their toughest on-the-job moments in Mistakes I Made at Work, a Publishers Weekly Top 10 Business Book for Spring 2014. These leaders from the arts, finance, and technology reveal that they are more thoughtful, purposeful, and assertive as leaders because they learned from their mistakes, not because they never made any. Among those interviewed are:
- Cheryl Strayed, bestselling author of Wild
- Anna Holmes, founding editor of Jezebel.com
- Kim Gordon, founding member of the band Sonic Youth
- Joanna Barsch, Director Emeritus of McKinsey & Company
- Carol Dweck, Stanford psychology professor
- Ruth Ozeki, New York Times bestselling author of Tale for the Time Being
- And many more
Mistakes I Made at Work is ideal for millenials just starting their careers, women seeking to advance at work, or anyone grappling with issues of perfectionism, and includes fascinating and surprising anecdotes, as well as reader tips.
