NEW YORK— April 28, 2020—Morgan James’ new release, Twice as Good: Leadership and Power for Women of Color, by Dr. Mary J. Wardell, is a guide for women of color to become leaders in the workplace. As an expert on diversity in the workplace and women of color in leadership, Dr. Mary J. Wardell presents a stirring call-to-action for women who are ready to take the next step in their career.
Twice as Good encourages young female professionals to harness their power as they work, taking a stand on issues that matter to them and leveraging their distinct capacity for building inclusivity and community. With greater awareness on gender and race issues than ever before, Americans are questioning what power and leadership should look like in the workplace, as they discover the truth about systemic racism and misogyny that women of color know all too well. Dr. Mary J. Wardell exposes the truth of these biased business practices and provides solutions for how to challenge them, even as a woman early in her career.
In Twice as Good, women of color learn why many fail to recognize their leadership potential, and why their work community needs them to be a courageous leader. Dr. Mary J. Wardell explains how bringing a young woman’s unique passion and perspective into their work can propel them into positions of leadership. Wardell offers practical advice and steps for assuming a leadership role while including powerful examples of other women of color who successfully aligned their personal power and cultural identity in the workplace.
