MSNBC reporter and author Daniela Pierre-Bravo to share career advice from new book, Sept. 15

Daniela Pierre-Bravo, a best-selling author and reporter for MSBC, will discuss her new book, “The Other,” at a National Press Club in-person Headliners book event on at 6 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 15.

In "The Other," Pierre-Bravo offers career advice directed at younger women of color, immigrants and the children of immigrants. Based on her own experience as an undocumented immigrant who put herself through college and achieved career success, Pierre-Bravo writes movingly of trying to fit in at work while being true to herself. The book also offers guidance for experienced professionals hoping to advance. Finally, Pierre-Bravo has helpful advice for managers and supervisors about how to build a diverse and thriving culture at work.

Tickets cost $5 for members of the National Press Club and $10 for the general public. Purchase your ticket and reserve your space online. 

Pre-ordered books will be available for pickup and signing at the event. Attendees will also be able to purchase books at the door.

Pierre-Bravo says the title of the book, "The Other: How to Own Your Power at Work as a Woman of Color," refers to feeling like – and being identified as - an outsider at work because you are a woman, an immigrant, or somehow “different” from the majority.

Pierre-Bravo’s own mentor, Morning Joe co-host and bestselling author Mika Brzezinski, says, Pierre-Bravo “mobilizes women to embrace their power, negotiate for more, and to possess their own space, not just to succeed but to be successful.”

She is a contributor and producer for NBC’s “Know Your Value” platform and co-author with Brzezinski of the book "Earn It!."
