Description
In one of the first in-depth studies to focus on minorities who have made it to the top echelons of corporate America, Breaking Through examines the crucial connection between corporate culture, career development, and the advancement of people of color. The often surprising conclusions drawn by authors Thomas and Gabarro represent important milestones both for the study of organizational practice and for minorities planning their own course of professional achievement. Pathways to success do exist for minorities, say Thomas and Gabarro, and breakthroughs can happen - if individuals and organizations understand the roles they play in creating the opportunities that enable minority executives to reach the top.
