A reissue of the ground-breaking book that will help you to find your voice and your confidence.

'At last. At last this very important book has been written . . . It will empower legions of women to step into their greatness.' β€” Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love

What could you achieve if you were confident enough to take risks? How much more fulfilled would you be if you ignored other people's perceptions and forged your own path?

All too often talented women feel unable to share their opinions, challenge the norm or take the lead. But now it's time to play big.

As the founder of a global leadership programme for women, Tara Mohr has spent her career teaching exceptional women to find their voice and their confidence. In Playing Big she shares her proven techniques for mastering self-doubt, dealing with criticism, and communicating with authority. She also demonstrates how to become self-assured enough to stop planning and take a leap forward so that you can achieve the things you want most.

'The perfect catalyst for any woman who wants to go outside her comfort zone, find her voice and embrace the biggest possibilities of her life.' β€” Kelly McGonigal, PhD, author of The Willpower Instinct
