About the Book

Rules of the Game exposes the realities of women who work in the masculine industries of resources, engineering and construction. Never before has a book provided such an honest account of women in these industries whilst succinctly delivering recommendations on how to overcome the challenges, break the stereotypes and achieve success.

Book Synopsis

The world of engineering, resources and construction has long been the domain of men.
With cultures built around aggression, dominance and hyper-masculinity, your only two options were to "harden up princess" or "Fit in or F-Off".
Being yourself, particularly if yourself didn't fit the prevailing culture, was not acceptable.
So what does this mean for the women today who work, or want to work, in these traditionally masculine industries? In Rules of the Game, Teagan Dowler, Organisational Development and Leadership Coach and founder of The Blue Collared Woman, shares her own and other's experiences to explore the reality of being a woman in the masculine workplace. Never before has a book presented such an honest account of the realities faced by women in these industries and succinctly delivers recommendations on how to overcome the challenges and make the most of the advantages.
