Sara Laschever: "Ask For It: How Women Can Use the Power of Negotiation to Get What They Really Want"

A writer with a longstanding interest in the life and career obstacles faced by women in the workplace, Sara Laschever has been published by The New York Times, The Harvard Business Review, The New York Review of Books, Vogue, Glamour, WomensBiz, and many other publications.

Her first book, Women Don’t Ask: The High Cost of Avoiding Negotiation — and Positive Strategies for Change, co-authored with Linda Babcock, explored a newly recognized phenomenon: that women are much less likely than men to use negotiation to improve their circumstances. Women Don’t Ask looks at the causes of this reluctance on the part of women and examines the high price women pay in both lost wages and delayed career advancement.

Sara Laschever earned her B.A. from Princeton University and M.A. from Boston University. She lives in Concord, Massachusetts with her husband and two sons.
