The purpose of Speak Up Stand Strong is to help women speak up more easily, effectively, powerfully and more often. This is not a male bashing book, but an empowering look at what women can do to develop their courageous voices to stand up for what they need, want and think - and at the same time, still stand in love and respect of others who may not agree or like what they have to say. Women face particular hurdles when it comes to speaking up. This book takes a practical look at dominance tactics that others use on women to silence them. Readers will learn why many women so easily fall for this domination time and time again and what they can do - together with others - to change all that. Reading Speak Up Stand Strong will help you: -understand the silencing tactics other's use-call these tactics out for what they are-learn how to speak truth and stand in courage-control your fear response when others don't like what you have to say -and use communication defense tactics. You will learn about a hidden force that makes it hard for even the most confident women to speak up at times and you will learn techniques to disempower it. This book will challenge your thinking on what it means to be a good woman, your relationship to conflict, and what it's going to take to really get the relationships, work and life that you want. You will learn the 5 skills that make up my communication self-defense model so you can more easily and effectively handle the backlash that so often occurs when women speak up and stand strong for what they need, want, and think.
