How Women Rise Break the 12 Habits Holding You Back from Your Next Raise, Promotion, or Job

How Women Rise by Sally Helgesen and Marshall Goldsmith delves into the often-unseen habits that can prevent ambitious women from reaching their full career potential. Rather than focusing on external barriers, the authors pinpoint twelve specific behaviors, often developed unintentionally over time, that can hold women back from securing promotions, raises, or new job opportunities. The book's central premise is that by becoming aware of these tendencies and actively working to shift them, women can unlock their next level of success. The book explores themes of self-perception, the impact of societal conditioning on professional behavior, and the importance of assertive self-advocacy. It moves beyond generic career advice by offering targeted strategies to overcome habits like the tendency to over-apologize, failing to ask for what one deserves, prioritizing others' needs over one's own professional goals, and hesitating to accept recognition. What makes "How Women Rise" compelling is its practical, step-by-step approach, combining the insights of leadership expert Sally Helgesen and executive coach Marshall Goldsmith. They provide actionable advice designed to empower women with the self-awareness and tools needed to navigate workplace dynamics effectively and accelerate their professional journeys.
