How to Say It For Women: Communicating with Confidence and Power Using the Language of Success Review: Women who want to advance into management should invest in this book - I purchased this book because of the praise of other desertcart reviewers and I was not disappointed! As a professional in a very male dominated field, this book truly hit home for me - so much so that a few of the points the author made were echoes of comments made previously by my boss about my own performance. Women fall into many traps that undermine their credibility and this book calls them out, one by one. I can't tell you how often I'm on a conference call and use the words "I think..." or "In my opinion...". Men don't use these words. Besides, they know that's what you think - you're the one saying it! However, justifiers such as these portray you as insecure, whether true or not. This is just one example of the ways women inadvertently tarnish their credibility. The author covers a vast array of topics and ways to become a stronger leader (and this doesn't necessarily mean you have to be just like a man!): Weak words and grammar Presentations and speaking in front of a group Body language Style and dress Reading for Power (what you read and how) Listening Leadership and Management The author includes many examples to illustrate her points and provides information that women can put to work to accelerate their careers. It is such a useful text that it was the recommended reading selection for a continuing education course a friend of mine recently attended. (She has already asked to borrow my copy.) The author has been conducting workshops on this topic for years and (sometimes humorously) includes her observances from those classes and participants in her book. Take advantage of her knowledge and invest in this book - you will not be disappointed! Review: Highly Recommended - How to Say it for Women provides a comprehensive guide to all aspects of successful communication, an area which can be especially challenging for working women. How do we communicate powerfully, avoiding seeming too young, too girly, too weak, but also without "acting like a man"? Drawing on her extensive experience running seminars on language, power, and leadership, Phyllis Mindell shows how language conveys weakness or strength using Charlotte, the word-weaving spider of Charlotte's Web, as a model. The metaphor may be a bit stretched, but It's less gimmicky than it sounds--as Mindell points out, "Charlotte understood the power of language to change the course of events." The book begins with "the language of weakness," explaining how the wrong language and bad habits can undermine women. It goes on to cover how grammar works to convey power, how to avoid bad habits, how to choose the right words, how to organize writing and presentations, giving talks, presentations, and job interviews, body language, personal style, writing, reading, listening, leadership, handling and responding to insults and put-downs, all the way through managing and mentoring others. Because "the principles of the language of success remain the same even as the settings change," no aspect of communication is unaddressed--this is much more than a quick self-help book. Urging readers to "embrace complexity" and never oversimplifying, the author writes crisply and clearly and provides helpful anecdotes, examples, and practical tips. While I was reading this book, I kept wanting to urge people I know to read it. (And not just women! The advice on topics such as avoiding vagueness or preparing a talk would be useful to anyone.) Mindell excels at clear, succinct explanations of what works and what doesn't and why. How to Say It for Women is well worth reading even for those who are already good communicators, since there's always some room for improvement. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #495,233 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #260 in Communication Reference (Books) #924 in Communication & Media Studies #1,184 in Communication Skills | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (90) | | Dimensions | 7.52 x 0.71 x 9.09 inches | | ISBN-10 | 0735202222 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0735202221 | | Item Weight | 15.4 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 256 pages | | Publication date | January 1, 2001 | | Publisher | Penguin Publishing Group | ## Images ![How to Say It For Women: Communicating with Confidence and Power Using the Language of Success - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61kOJDwR+ML.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Women who want to advance into management should invest in this book *by M***E on November 16, 2008* I purchased this book because of the praise of other Amazon reviewers and I was not disappointed!

I teach phone skills and I'm always correcting people on their choice of words so I appreciated this author's ideas and how she presented them. She gives so many examples of how women sound "wimpy" and recommends not only the suggested changes but exercises to do. I highly recommend this book if you need to spruce up your words at work, do presentations or if you are the lone female in a group of men who "don't listen to you." --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/11818516-how-to-say-it-for-women-communicating-with-confidence-power](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/11818516-how-to-say-it-for-women-communicating-with-confidence-power) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
