Women Who Work: Rewriting the Rules for Success is a book written by Ivanka Trump, published in May 2017. The book aims to provide guidance and inspiration for women striving to achieve success in both their professional and personal lives. Drawing from her own experiences as an executive at the Trump Organization and founder of the Ivanka Trump fashion brand, Trump offers advice on how to balance work and family, negotiate salaries, and cultivate a personal brand, among other topics.

Women Who Work is divided into several chapters, each focusing on different aspects of the modern professional woman's life. Trump incorporates her own stories with those of other successful women to illustrate her points.

Trump also discusses the role of mentorship, the value of perseverance, and the importance of crafting a personal mission statement.

Reception[edit | edit source]

The reception of Women Who Work has been mixed. Critics have praised the book for its practical advice and inspirational stories. However, some reviewers have criticized it for not fully addressing the challenges faced by the average working woman, particularly those without access to the same resources as Trump. The book has also been scrutinized for its timing, released amidst her father's presidency and her role as an advisor to the White House, raising questions about potential conflicts of interest.

Impact[edit | edit source]

Despite the mixed reviews, Women Who Work has sparked conversations about women in the workforce, the challenges they face, and how they can navigate these challenges to achieve success. The book has been used in discussions about gender equality, work-life balance, and the role of women in leadership positions.
