"Power Tools for Women® is clear, practical, up-beat and engaging. Joni Daniels provides women at every organizational level with strategies to help identify strengths as well as providing insight into how to tap the power and potential they have but may not be using. Her tools for empowerment allow women to play, to win, and to accomplish goals in every aspect of their lives."
"Power tools have, of course, been a traditional symbol of masculine ability, so it's apt that author Joni Daniels, who wants to provide women with a competitive edge in an often male-dominated workplace, reverses that symbolism in this book. Daniels essentially gives women a metaphoric set of tools -- among them, safety goggles (for safe vision), a demolition hammer (to smash outmoded rules), and a tape measure (to establish limits). The advice given in the book is clear and practical, and it should help anyone who wants to acquire the skills needed to do well in a corporate environment"
"This is an excellent book! As director of the Wharton Small Business Center, I know that self-awareness, along with confidence and abilities, are major keys to success. Joni's instruction in our entrepreneurial classes has proven invaluable. Having the ability to transform your life to achieve your goals is a precious gift. Thanks to Power Tools for Women®, that vehicle now exists for women in any field."
Drawing from her popular Power Tools for Women® training workshops and presentations, management consultant, trainer and author Joni Daniels teaches women how to be personally and professionally more effective at work, at home, and in the community.
In the Power Tools for Women® workshops, women can attain more personal and professional power by tapping into the metaphor of the tool kit. Too few women grow up wielding power tools and enjoying that sense of accomplishment and self-sufficiency they impart. Power Tools for Women® helps participants use the same set of skills no matter where they are, to be more successful.
