About The Book

Publication Date: March 1, 2023

She’s changing women’s lives, one play at a time.

Women are natural leaders but they’ve been taught to play the game by an outdated set of rules. So certified executive coach, Randi Braun, wrote them a new playbook.

In Braun’s book, Something Major: The New Playbook for Women at Workwomen will discover how to play the leadership game on their own terms and win when it comes to achieving their goals: whether it’s cracking the code on your self-doubt by ditching perfectionism, external validation, and the tyranny of your inner critic, or learning new tactics for owning your message (don’t miss 16 things she forbids you to say at work). Braun’s book provides a fresh take on one of the most tremendous challenges of our time: empowering women at work to chart their own course to the top — dialing up confidence and fulfillment, and dialing down burnout in the process.

In Something Major: The New Playbook for Women at WorkBraun takes the field and re-writes the plays of the game. She is a sought-after thought leader, speaker, and CEO of the women’s leadership firm, Something Major. Her book delivers stories for today’s women leaders in a conversational style that’s packed with sage advice and wildly entertaining.

The Review

For women in the workplace who have hit the proverbial rut, author Randi F. Braun delivers a new set of tools and rules for building an inspirational career that is fulfilling and impactful.

That’s the goal of Something Major. Braun packages this information together into a new playbook for women at work. The old playbook worked to get women into a male-dominated workforce and check the boxes for success. Now that women are making inroads and building successful careers, they need tips to maintain their earlier momentum.

Divided into 10 chapters, the author’s intent is to deliver a buffet of options and encourage readers to take the information that speaks to them. I like this approach since it allows each reader to have a customized experience.

For me, Chapter 7: Owning Your Message resonated strongly. In that chapter, the author provides the “I Forbid It” List, a compilation of 16 words and phrases that undermine us and shouldn’t be used in the workplace.

Something Major offers helpful tips and tricks for women to thrive in their careers. Packed with solid examples and research, this is an empowering message for readers.

REVIEW AUTHOR

Amy Wilson
Amy Wilson
My name is Amy W., and I am a book addict. I will never forget the day I came home from junior high school to find my mom waiting for me with one of the Harlequin novels from my stash. As she was gearing up for the "you shouldn't be reading this" lecture, I told her the characters get married in the end. I'm just glad she didn't find the Bertrice Small book hidden in my closet. I have diverse reading tastes, evident by the wide array of genres on my Kindle. As I made the transition to an e-reader, I found myself worrying that something could happen to it. As a result, I am now the proud owner of four Kindles -- all different kinds, but plenty of back-ups! "Fifty Shades of Grey" gets high marks on my favorites list -- not for character development or dialogue (definitely not!), but because it blazed new ground for those of us who believe provocative fiction is more than just an explicit cover. Sylvia Day, Lexie Blake, and Kristin Hannah are some of my favorite authors. Speaking of diverse tastes, I also enjoy Dean Koontz, Iris Johansen, and J.A. Konrath. I’m always ready to discover new-to-me authors, especially when I toss in a palate cleanser that is much different than what I would normally read. Give me something with a well-defined storyline, add some suspense (or spice), and I am a happy reader. Give me a happily ever after, and I am downright giddy.
