Ask Outrageously!

In Ask Outrageously!, Linda Byars Swindling argues that fear often stops people from asking for what they truly want. However, this type of fear is usually unfounded; what’s likely getting in the way of your own success is you. To overcome your fears, you must learn how to ask effectively—and in some cases, outrageously—to get affirmative responses that can lead to raises, promotions, and career success. You must build up your confidence, consider the needs of others, and be first in line to do the asking.
