In "That's What She Said," Joanne Lipman offers a groundbreaking look at the gender divide in the workplace, providing an insightful and pragmatic approach toward bridging the gap. With a career that has seen her rise to the top of a male-dominated industry, Lipman combines personal anecdotes with the latest research to illuminate the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. This is not a book about man-shaming or placing the onus solely on women to demand change; rather, it's a clarion call for men and women alike to work together for a more equitable and productive work environment. Through engaging stories and data-driven evidence, Lipman reveals how companies with greater gender diversity are not just fairer but also perform better on nearly every measure. Lipman tackles thorny issues such as the respect gap, unconscious bias, and the pay and promotion gap with finesse and a forward-thinking perspective. She explores the power dynamics that lead to phenomena like "bropropriation" and "mansplaining," providing readers with actionable solutions to foster more inclusive workplaces. "That's What She Said" is more than just a book; it's a roadmap for transforming the way we communicate and collaborate across gender lines. Drawing lessons from as far afield as the Enron scandal and Iceland's national campaign for gender equality, Lipman shows how dismantling the barriers that hold women back benefits everyone. It's a compelling, essential read for anyone committed to making the workplace—and the world—a better place for all.

A must read for every male executive who wants to get it right. - Mark Cuban
A bigger hurdle, once we drill down into it, is the basic assumption that underlies the pipeline theory: that we are fair in the first place.
