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"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 305.488 Mu Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.488 Munoz Checked In Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.488 Mu Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.488 Mu Checked In Add Copy to MyList
