In this course you'll find that developing and demonstrating Business Savvy (business, financial and strategic acumen):
Isn’t “too hard” or “too mathy”
Won’t take hours and hours away from your friends, family and fun
Will require a temporary small add to your full plate, but you’ll gain the time back in spades if you do the work.
Will elevate your career - whether you’re at career-start and heading to the C-suite.
Produces enduring results, not a quick fix.
Does this resonate with you? If so, it's time to unlock the power of Business Savvy for your success. It's the key skill for shattering glass ceilings, gaining a respected voice, and achieving your full potential.
Too often, we are kept out of the loop on the business, financial and strategic insights that drive decision making because managers don't think we have the interest or the acumen. You can break that cycle with Be Business Savvy!

*What's Business Savvy?
So Glad You Asked
In 2000, when I discovered The Missing 33% of the career success equation for women (and when I updated the research in 2023) I found that managers rated men as outperforming women in the areas of business, financial and strategic acumen.
That is a mouthful!
To shorten it, I could be using the term The Missing 33%. For example "Close The Missing 33%" but I thought you'd resonate with something more aspirational and inspirational.
"Be Business Savvy" fits the bill.
It's a shorter way of saying, "Build your business, financial and strategic acumen in order to close the 33% gap in the career success equation for women."
NOW even the logo makes sense!
By the way, see the star at the center of the logo?
That's you!
...shining with greater Business Savvy.
