About this ebook
“An insightful, inspiring guide for women who are trying to claim their own seat at the table.” —New York Journal of Books
Who is the most powerful woman in the room? She’s the one who can raise a million dollars in a minute. She’s the one who can command the attention of a group of any size from one person to five thousand. She’s the one who can sell anything to anyone. And she can be you.
A former ambassador for Christie’s, a leader in her field, and one of Gotham magazine’s Most Influential Women in New York, Lydia Fenet knows firsthand that the one skill that can set women apart in both their personal life and career is the ability to sell. The Most Powerful Woman in the RoomIs You equips you with everything you need to know—from how to sell authentically and how to network, to the importance of never apologizing (start negotiating instead), how to perfect your poker face, and always, always, tell the truth.
Filled with additional case studies, insights, and meaningful advice from some of the most successful women in business, fashion, journalism, sports, and the arts, The Most Powerful Woman in the Room Is You will show you how to embrace and channel your power in any room.
“We all agree that we need more women leaders—the question is how to get there. One of the answers is Lydia Fenet.” —Arianna Huffington, Founder & CEO, Thrive Global
“With the help of her razor-sharp humor and her don’t-mess-with-me gavel strike, she can run a room like no one I’ve ever seen.” —Mariska Hargitay
