A hilarious tongue-in-cheek guide for women about how to get ahead in the workplace.

The unspoken rules for how women should behave in the workplace are as numerous as they are confusing. Let viral TikTok and Netflix star Sarah Cooper be your guide!

Ask for a pay rise? Pushy.
Take credit for an idea? Arrogant.
Admit a mistake? Weak.
Successfully juggle work and family? Unpromotable.

In How to Be Successful Without Hurting Men's Feelings, Sarah Cooper, author of the bestselling 100 Tricks to Appear Smart in Meetings, illustrates how women can achieve their dreams, succeed in their careers and become leaders, without harming the fragile male ego.

This wickedly funny tongue-in-cheek guide includes chapters on 'How to Ace Your Job Interview Without Over-acing It', '9 Non-threatening Leadership Strategies for Women', and 'Choose Your Own Adventure: Do You Want to Be Likeable or Successful?'. It even includes several pages to doodle on while men finish explaining things.

When all else fails, there is a set of cut-outable moustaches inside to allow women to seem more man-like, which will probably lead to a quick promotion!
