They may be wondering if they have a responsibility to other women in their field (or to other women in their family) to change a sexist environment. As a trial lawyer and coach, Meredith Holley uses what she has learned from her own experiences of overcoming harassment, stalking, and discrimination, as well as her legal experience, to help her clients. Even women who do not want to bring a legal claim for their harassment are able to use the strategies she teaches in Career Defense 101 to overcome sexual harassment and reach a new level in their careers"--Back cov...er.

Review by Library Journal Review

Lawyer Holley guides women through the process of recognizing and addressing sexual harassment in the workplace by advocating seven strategies, including identifying the problem behavior, learning about the law, and taking action. The author identifies the feelings of women who experience discrimination in sexist environments and coaches them to believe in themselves and take the necessary steps toward effecting change. Aiding the narrative is a toolkit complete with samples of "Cease & Desist" orders along with graduated steps of reporting and dealing with unwanted advances. -VERDICT -Important holistic legal advice that advocates for women facing sexual harassment. © Copyright 2018.
