About this ebook
This comprehensive guide for professional women offers inspiration and practical strategies for getting the career you deserve.
In Dig in Your Heels, Joan Kuhl helps women create a clear vision of what they deserve in their careers and a practical path for turning that vision into reality. She offers strategies for overcoming sexist attitudes in the office, as well as for dealing with self-limiting behaviors like Imposter's Syndrome and the Myth of Meritocracy. Kuhl also describes how to build support networks before you even need them and explains how to get actionable feedback that will help you get to the next level—the kind women are rarely afforded.
Case studies, practical exercises, and inspiring stories from Kuhl's work with clients at companies such as Goldman Sachs, U.S. Soccer, BlackRock, and top business schools make this a truly comprehensive guide. It's an indispensable resource for women who are determined to secure their seat at the table and create a welcoming workplace for everyone.
