Summary:
"Women of color are experiencing an unprecedented wave of 'firsts'--whether it's the first in a family to attend college, the first to serve as CEO of a Fortune 500 company, or the first to serve in Congress for a red state, women of color have reached new heights of influence. Cecilia Muñoz was a first, too, and she knows the difficulties of making her way without exemplars to follow. The first Latinx to direct national domestic policy issues, More than Enough draws lessons from the challenges she faced and the victories she achieved as a woman of color in the White House. She shares her experiences in the Obama administration as an offering of inspiration to others--Latinas and other women of color--who are no longer willing to be invisible, or left behind. She provides tactical techniques for getting ahead as a person of color in a white-dominated arena, such as: Keep your elbows sharp: Hold your ground when others seek to devalue your contribution Defend kindness: Elevate empathy in the workplace and beyond Leverage failure: Turn losses into gains by embracing the benefits of the experience Full of invaluable lessons about working through fear, overcoming racial injustices, and facing down detractors, Muñoz provides the thoughtful insight and tactical tools women of color need to reach unprecedented levels of power and success--without compromising who they are"--
