Lindelwa Skenjana is the author of “The Black Girls Guide to Corporate South Africa”.

This timely memoir-cum-guide includes the insights of black women at various stages of their career as they navigate the pitfalls of the corporate world.

A performance review of the working world introduced to the young women reveals issues such as racism, sexism, ethnic chauvinism, ageism, and sexual harassment that many encounter with naivety.

When technical expertise and hard work are not the issue, how do black women make the most of their efforts and support each other to success?
