"Likeable Badass: How Women Get The Success They Deserve" with the author, Alison Fragale, PhD

  1. "Likeable Badass: How Women Get The Success They Deserve" with the author, Alison Fragale, PhD Jane Leder 37:47

This episode, “Likeable Badass” with author/PhD Alison Fagale, covers so many bases that I’ve chosen more of a summary or an outline.

As I wrote on another site, Alison is a Dynamo who knows her stuff inside and out because she’s lived it, taught it, and written about it.

What is it? It is a woman who studies people, the science of people. It is a toolbox that women (and men) can use to hone their communication skills and succeed at what’s most important to them.

What does that mean?

Well, here you go with some examples:

The Two Dimensions of Status

The Art of Self-Promotion

The Power of Compliments

Authenticity in Reputation Management

It’s always great to get feedback from listeners. You can go to my website at janeleder.net, subscribe to my site for podcast episodes, my blog 80 & Me, information about upcoming guests, and more.

Jane Leder Podcaster & Author

I am an award-winning author of books about teen suicide, siblings, and men and women during WWII. My feature articles have appeared in publications from Psychology Today to the Chicago Sun-Times. I enjoy the journey of writing, the process. But as I celebrated my seventy-seventh birthday, I wanted a change of focus and turned my creative energies into launching "Older Women & Friends," a podcast. The challenge has been exhilarating and will certainly help me make it through the dead of winter in the Midwest.
