      This book is dedicated to my daughters, Thalia and Marisa.

      Women of color are the most underrepresented group in the corporate pipeline. We are hired at lower rates. We are promoted at lower rates. We are retained at lower rates. We are paid at lower rates.

      Here's the irony. According to the United States Census Bureau, women of color are one of the fastest growing demographic groups in the United States. It has been projected that women of color will actually be the majority of all women here in the United States by 2060. But being a rapidly rising demographic isn't enough. We want opportunities.

This book is divided into three sections:

       Part I is focused on preparation. These first three chapters of Prep lay the foundation for knowing your worth, cementing your career values, bouncing back if you lose a job, and securing the salary you deserve when you land a new one.

       Part II is centered on pushing forward. Over the course of three chapters, Push helps СКАЧАТЬ
