How Women Lead Book Giveaway & Get Ahead Club Kickoff!

Today we are kicking off the start of the Classy Career Girl Get Ahead Club interviews by giving FIVE books away!  In two weeks, I am actually going to be interviewing the author of this book, How Women Lead, The 8 Essential Strategies Successful Women Know. Hopefully, 5 of you will have this book in your hands while listening to the interview in the club!

There are so many little nuggets of wisdom in this book on things you can do today even if you aren’t yet a manager at work. Many people think that they can’t be leaders unless they are managers.  Wrong! There are so many ways you can show leadership at work and ways that you can actually manage up.  Here are some wisdom nuggets from the book that I really enjoyed:

  • Be comfortable being uncomfortable.  All highly successful women seem to have this courage gene that propels them to seek out new and challenging opportunities, and take a stand for what they believe in. When you are courageous, you can change the world.
  • Break free of the boundaries.  When you think of the future, do you limit yourself from reaching the highest levels?  Do you dream really big dreams but dismiss them as being unrealistic?  When you dismiss goals as being unrealistic, without even realizing it, you are responding to cultural or family expectations of women.
  • Make the numbers your allies.  Get over your fear of finance and learn how to translate what the numbers show into meaningful action. Being able to tie your actions to the overall results of the business makes you act differently when making decisions.  Most women wish they would have taken more business courses and taken those courses earlier in their careers.  Their advice to women starting out: “Get a sound foundation in business.”
