Praise for When We're in Charge
-
“Enough already with the quiet quitting: Amanda Litman understands that the world is better when we get involved, lead with principle, and don’t give up. When We’re in Charge is the new essential handbook for taking power and actually using it to do good.”
Jon Favreau, Jon Lovett, and Tommy Vietor, Crooked Media Reads -
“This is essential reading for any Gen Z or millennial who holds a leadership position or one day hopes to. The next generation of leadership is primed to look and act like nothing that’s come before and Amanda Litman has given them the roadmap to do exactly that.”
Jason Kander, New York Times bestselling author of Invisible Storm and Outside the Wire, and first millennial elected to statewide office -
“When We’re in Charge will help you be the boss you wished you had. This book is chock full of information and guidance—anyone under 40 will come away with invaluable insights into the changing workplace and how they can successfully lead their teams with compassion (and still get sh*t done.)”
