All women should read the amazing negotiation advice in the the book:

All women should read the amazing negotiation advice in the book, "Women in Tech: Take your Career to the Next Level" by Tarah Wheeler. I applied the advice in a recent negotiation round and got a 15% bump in salary! Anybody have good advice for how to request a raise that's worked? Great article here: http://www.geekwire.com/2016/book-excerpt-4-negotiating-tactics/

I agree 100%. I just read the book, and am not in tech. Why is it so valuable to a non-tech worker? It's not just the generalizable advice, though that is very, very good (some tips really are tech-specific, but many are relevant for any industry). What I loved most was the sheer attitude that infuses the book. Wheeler knows her value, pulls no punches and sees the world as it is, not as she wants it to be, (and is working to make it better). She has high self-respect and strong character, and that is a great head-space to get to live in while reading. The author is an excellent role model for how to treat yourself right in your own work realm, whatever it is. Highly recommended.
