The Male Factor, at a glance looks like another one of those relationship advice books. It is, but The Male Factor by Shaunti Feldhahn isn’t to help your love life. This book is about the relationships we have with men in the work place. With feminism, women’s lib, and all the talk about equality in the workplace, sadly, it is still a man’s world. In most businesses men still dominate and/or run the work environment. Feldhahn does an excellent job of dissecting the male mind at work. Note, I said “at work”. Men compartmentalize and have a different mind set in different environments. Understanding how the men you work around think is an invaluable tool. It’s a tool that can help you improve your interpersonal work relationships and achieve success instead of unknowingly sabotaging yourself. Although Feldhahn wants to help us understand the male mindset and develop a more cohesive work environment, the fact that this book will have you thinking before you speak can help improve all your professional relationships, male and female. This is a must have book for every professional woman. Five out of five stars.
