The Female Worker's 14 Commandments for Powering Up Your Career Ellen Grant

Moses needed only Ten Commandments, but he wasn't a woman navigating the business world. As women, we carry the tablets not only in the business world, but also while raising the family, churning the butter, cooking and tending the sheep. You have high aspirations which means you will need high-order skills to advance in your life and career. Identifying mentors, effectively managing others, and being aware of your own strengths and challenges are just a few areas to cultivate. In this guide, I have summarized the concepts that have been most crucial to my own career success. It's my hope that these 14 commandments will be useful to you as you forge your own path to success. Read this book. Digest it. Put the concepts into practice. Then keep it as a daily guide and handy reference, picking it up whenever you run into career challenges. You already know you have the skills, the knowledge and the expertise to help an organization carry out its mission. You are ready to advance to the next level whether in your current organization or the next one. You are energetic, inquisitive, and willing to try new things. An adventurer who thrives on self-development, you laugh out loud and you dance when no one is watching. Wouldn't it be wonderful to translate all that you know into a successful career of your own design? This book is a must-read for women who want to step outside their fear and elevate themselves so they can advance to their fullest potential.
