OWN IT! Be the Boss of Your Life--at Home and in the Workplace

A take-no-prisoners consultant and star of a business makeover TV show delivers hard-hitting advice on how to own who you are, manage yourself, and speak up when other people fail to work or don’t act like grown-ups. With her Australian accent and salty language, Coffey’s authentic confidence is perfect for this type of advice—an audible example of the assertiveness, style, and work ethic she encourages listeners to adopt. She says people get more out of themselves and others when they stop fearing disapproval, stop protecting others from their screwups, and stop being inhibited about what they want to do. With inspiring case histories and many specific strategies for beginning entrepreneurs, this is a high-impact invitation to demand the results you want from your life.
