Cracking The Corporate Code: The Revealing Success Stories Of 32 African-American Executives by Price M.
Cobbs and Judith L. Turnock
In exclusive, eye-opening interviews,
men and women recount their impressive and widely
differing career trajectories, revealing what motivated
and discouraged them, their sources of support and
conflict, and the strategies they developed to excel
in organizations like PepsiCo, GE, Merrill Lynch,
Kraft, Prudential, Chrysler, and dozens more.
Rather than offer these inspiring
stories as individual biographies, the authors have
identified their common threads, analyzing what
they reveal to the reader about:
Reconciling the ambiguities inherent for black
professionals in corporate culture
Trusting your own abilities and potential
while managing the ever-present issue of race
Overcoming isolation to establish not only
your place in the organization but also a voice
that will be heard and respected
Reading the unwritten rules and developing
the “sixth sense” necessary to play the game
Cultivating and managing the relationships
that will be crucial to securing more meaningful
and influential positions
Understanding what true power is, how to compete
for and acquire it, and how to translate it
into substantial leadership
