When We're in Charge,

From the cofounder of Run For Something and veteran political campaign staffer, Amanda Litman, comes the missing guidebook for millennials and zoomers in positions of power, those who are becoming leaders, and those looking to find their path forward in their workplace, school, or community.

Within the next few years, millennials and zoomers—the “next-gen”—are poised to take over the workforce. As these generations begin to shake off the old models of boomer leadership, and replace them with a mode that’s more human, authentic, and infused with urgency about what’s ahead, future leaders need a roadmap now more than ever on how to lead differently. When We’re in Charge is the essential book to prepare for the shift that’s coming—a how-to guide by and for the next generations as they step into their power, and redefine what leadership looks like.

Amanda Litman has interviewed dozens of leaders in politics, tech, business, media, the arts, and more, including Versha Sharma, editor in chief of Teen Vogue; Maxwell Frost, first Gen Z member of Congress; Kyle Bukowski, Chief Medical Officer of Planned Parenthood; and Evan Spiegel, CEO of Snapchat; to compile the definitive guide to leadership for the next generation. Using their successes, and failures, as case studies—along with Litman’s own experience as a founder and entrepreneur—When We’re in Charge boils her learnings down to ten key values that the next generations hopes to embody in their leadership, and exactly how to do so, featuring chapters on authenticity, diversity, ambition, and much more. Each section is paired with action items and practical ways to bring those values to life. When We’re in Charge will prepare the next cohort of changemakers to break the mold of leadership and have an immense impact, whether it’s at work, school, or in your community.
