Dancing on the Glass Ceiling: Tap into Your True Strengths, Activate Your Vision, and Get What You Really Want Out of Your Career

Author(s): Candy Deemer

Motivation/ Inspiration

For three decades businesswomen have been told that the key to advancing is to "play like a man." Candy Deemer and Nancy Fredericks, corporate consultants and authors of Dancing on the Glass Ceiling say that it's playing like a woman that will get a woman to where she wants to be, relying on her inherent, feminine-based strengths to distinguish themselves as leaders: exceptional communication skills, team-and-relationship building, intuition, and a supportive mindset that nurtures both their companies and their employees. The real-life stories, research, insights, techniques, and advice in this book illustrate the potency of those feminine-based skill sets. Written in a friendly, workshop-like tone, Dancing on the Glass Ceiling combines conceptual wisdom with accessible, practical guidance for all professional women for the present and ever-changing business world.
