Rate this book
How can black men and women get ahead in the "white" corporate world? Must they "blend in?" The Black Manager, based on a study of successful black manager, reveals how blacks can nurture the attitudes and skills necessary to excel in the workplace - and still maintain their personal values. At the heart of the book is developmental model that guides readers through four career phases: Entry, Adjusting, Planned Growth, and Success. The model helps readers improve personal, professional, and political skills; understand their own and others' insecurities; and asses their organization's culture and learn to operate in it successfully.

This revised edition has been thoroughly updated and features a new section on job mastery that lays out strategies for breaking through the "glass ceiling" that continues to thwart advancement. The Black Manager will help all readers - black and nonblack - to be more effective in today's increasingly diverse workplace.
