Publisher's summary

Are you a female engineer or a manager of female engineers?

Are you working hard but not getting ahead? Do you feel you aren’t getting the recognition you deserve? Are you frustrated that you can’t seem to penetrate the "boys network" at work?

Are you searching for a practical career guide that goes beyond social commentary on gender issues in engineering? One written by a female engineer that has been in the trenches just like you? A guide with tactics that actually work if you aren’t the boss? One that will give you immediate results

Then She Engineers was written for you.

Imagine a life where you choose your own career path. You love what you do. You are an influencer, a go-to person at your company and in your field. You aren’t working ridiculous hours. You have a life outside of work. You may even have a couple of young children if you so choose, while still enjoying a well-paying, impactful career in engineering.

Sound like a pipe dream?

It’s not. This audiobook will show you how.

As a 15-year engineering industry veteran and mom of three, Stephanie Slocum uses a conversational and down-to-earth approach to teach you how to succeed as a female engineer:

  • How to determine your strengths and use them for maximum influence
  • How to find your expert niche and use it to create the career (and life!) you deserve
  • Why the well-meaning career advice given to male engineers backfires for women, and how you can avoid those traps
  • How to have a career you love without sacrificing all your waking hours
  • How to neutralize gender bias while maximizing your earning potential
  • The one thing you must do to elevate your career to the next level

Each chapter concludes with actions you can do in 30 minutes or less for immediate results. As a female engineer herself, she knows first-hand the value of your time and has packed her years of experience, stories, and lessons learned into one concise, easy-to-follow resource for other female engineers.

Excellent book for women in engineering

I loved this book. I am a structural engineer with 10+ years of experience who was looking for some guidance after a career change. This book is relevant for women at the beginning of their careers and those of us who are well into them. I found so many similarities with the author and that was incredibly reassuring. It honestly "reset" my love of engineering and desire to push on with my career goals.

Required reading for the female engineer

I’ve been an engineer for over 10 years, married for 8, and a mom for 2 - and wish I read this when I started out. I especially appreciate the last couple chapters on work life balance and the proactive steps needed to truly have it all, all at the same time.
