Before you were told to "Lean In," Dr. Lois Frankel told you how to get that corner office. The New York Times bestseller, is now completely revised and updated. In this edition, internationally recognized executive coach Lois P. Frankel reveals a distinctive set of behaviors--over 130 in all--that women learn in girlhood that ultimately sabotage them as adults. She teaches you how to eliminate these unconscious mistakes that could be holding you back and offers invaluable coaching tips that can easily be incorporated into your social and business skills. Stop making "nice girl" errors that can become career pitfalls, such as: Mistake #13: Avoiding office politics. If you don't play the game, you can't possibly win. Mistake #21: Multi-tasking. Just because you can do something, doesn't mean you should do it. Mistake #54: Failure to negotiate. Don't equate negotiation with confrontation. Mistake #70: Inappropriate use of social media. Once it's out there, it's hard to put the toothpaste back in the tube. Mistake #82: Asking permission. Children, not adults, ask for approval. Be direct, be confident.
Lois is the author of numerous bestselling books, including the business bible for women, Nice Girls Don?t Get the Corner Office. Her latest book, Ageless Women, Timeless Wisdom: Witty, Wicked, and Wise Reflections on Well-Lived Lives, is a heartwarming and hilarious look at the insights of women seventy years old and better. After a career making a living as a consultant, executive coach, keynote speaker and writing books, she now applies the wit and wisdom she garnered during own well-lived life to projects that make a difference in the lives of women and girls. Although she continues to write and speak to women?s groups around the world, Lois spends more time helping to grow Bloom Again Foundation, the nonprofit she started with colleagues and friends, coaching young women via telephone and e-mail how to achieve their career goals, and building the Crafty Sisters Collection, a place for women artists to sell their handmade work. A native New Yorker, she currently enjoys living in Southern California where she can garden year round and take her rescue dog, Maddie, on long walks just about 365 days a year.
