Product Description

When a woman acts assertively, makes demands, and struggles for what she wants, she is labeled a bitch. The secret is to know when and how to turn on (or turn off) that “bitch switch.” Not being able to locate your “switch” leaves you open to being a victim; not knowing how to turn it off will get you a label that is hard to shake.

From Omarosa, reality star, global television personality, and the prime-time woman you love to hate, comes The Bitch Switch, the smart and bitingly honest must-read for every woman who aspires to succeed in relationships, in business, and at home.

From Publishers Weekly
Starred Review. Reality television mainstay Omarosa, best known for her caustic behavior as a contestant on The Apprentice, has embraced her identity as on-screen reality villain and turned it into a genuinely insightful, thorough self-help guide for women looking to strengthen themselves, especially in work environments. Prescribing unapologetic assertiveness in pursuit of one's own happiness, Omarosa wants readers not just to find their "inner bitch," but learn to control it via the "bitch switch." Her advice for deploying the bitch is simple and straightforward, presented with surprising respect and fairness; Omarosa's overbearing self-involvement, in this book, becomes a studied strategy in avoiding exploitation. Lots of Omarosa's advice is old and faithful-the importance of self-esteem, the negligibility of what others think of you-but she has an aggressive, involving style, a definite point of view, and no trouble explaining either in succinct lessons and anecdotes, with plenty of sidebars ("What Would Omarosa Do?"), self-evaluations and exercises.

Customer Reviews

Not worth the money
In summation - this book stinks and is not worth one penny ($0.01 USD). If you want to read some random junk by Omarosa, and line her undeserving pocketbooks a little bit, go ahead & buy a copy. I do not recommend it.

Forget her reputation - this is a great book!
I bet the person before me never actually bought the book, and only rated because she just doesn't like Omarosa.

I read the book. I expected it to be an autobiography, but I got something else. Omarosa gave us pointers on how to succeed in the business field by...Well, acting a bitch.

I am actually inspired by her. Though I don't agree with the things she had said, I actually quite like this book. I recommend all women, any age, to get this book. It will teach you how to be stronger and demand higher things for your job.
