Description

From microaggressions to the wage gap, The Memo empowers women of color with actionable advice on challenges and offers a clear path to success.

Most business books provide a one-size-fits-all approach to career advice that overlooks the unique barriers that women of color face. In The Memo, Minda Harts offers a much-needed career guide tailored specifically for women of color.

Drawing on knowledge gained from her past career as a fundraising consultant to top colleges across the country, Harts now brings her powerhouse entrepreneurial experience as CEO of The Memo to the page. With wit and candor, she acknowledges "ugly truths" that keep women of color from having a seat at the table in corporate America. Providing straight talk on how to navigate networking, office politics, and money, while showing how to make real change to the system, The Memo offers support and long-overdue advice on how women of color can succeed in their careers.

    This is the first book that has finally given me the directions and guidance I have been looking for in my advertising career. As much as corporations are still behind on realizing diversity in the workplace is importance for innovative experiences, Minda really hits the narrative on what black and brown women should be doing to not only get a seat at the table but secure it as well. I absolutely enjoyed this book and will snag a copy of “the Right Within” when I have a chance.

    It was amazing, well-written, and powerful. In my journey of discovery I never knew how much I needed to read this. Especially being younger than the author, it gives me helpful tips to keep in mind as I navigate my career.

    This book is absolutely amazing! Ms. Minda Hart’s candor, wittiness and fervor on connecting with women of color and educating the masses on how we should treat each other in the workplace is impeccable. Nonetheless, the resources and tools shared to help all “level up” or reality check was empowering and giving!

    This was such a honest book. I can tell Minda out her heart and soul in this. While I may not have the exact experiences I can relate to some. I plan on getting her book and giving a copy to my executive leadership team.
