I’m so excited to be sharing with paid subscibers an actionable series on The Single Most Important Thing You Need to Succeed

As the title promises, this small but mighty series will help you think differently and supercharge the flawed mainstream advice that comes at you (me and all women) like a tsunami.

And you’ll learn why Business Savvy flips advice from flawed to fabulous. Advice such as:

  • Earn sponsorship

  • Self-promote

  • Network strategically

  • Honing your leadership brand

Part One begins below my signature.

Over the next 10 linked posts you’ll gain access to important guidance in digestible chunks.

If you’ve ever wondered if I’m crazy to think that Business Savvy really matters, this course will put your mind at ease. I’m just fine!

Part One

There are over 15 pieces of career advice that are commonly and repeatedly given to women. 9 of the most common are represented here.

I call these “Career Enablers” because if we are “good enough” at these, we face fewer career hurdles and barriers.

Notice that I didn’t say that we have to be “perfect” at all of them. Perfection is unattainable and seeking it a waste of time and effort.

Here’s what we’ll be tackling in this mini-series.

  1. Self Promote

  2. Earn Sponsorship

  3. Hone Your Leadership Brand

  4. Network Strategically

  5. Demo Executive Presence

I hope that at least one of these is a focus area for you!
