Summary

How to climb the corporate ladder in the 21st century as a young manager and lead a successful team, even with little experience.

What does it take to be a leader?

Why do others get promoted, yet you have been in the same position for ages?

Are you tired of being led by a bad manager–one who micromanages and creates a stressful and panic attack-enabling work environment–not to mention the red tape and bureaucracy?

If you ask these critical questions, you are ready to lead.

It’s women like you who will take organizations to the next level–all you need is to convert your desire to lead into a managerial job and become a great leader.

In a world where women lead less than 10 percent of Fortune 500 companies, your willingness to bring change means a lot to the world, and you can be a role model to many young girls.

So, what do you need?

You have the motivation–the next step is to learn the "how".

Without the right leadership skills, you might be stuck with imposter syndrome and sabotage your progress in the long run.

You are about to unlock the secrets of successful women leaders right inside.

Whether you just got promoted to a managerial position or are starting your career, the information you’ll find inside is empowering.

You’ll learn the exact steps to get your desired recognition, promotion, and success.

The hacks, tools, skills, and expert tips you’ll acquire will ensure you step into a high-level position fearlessly, without allowing the gender card to hold you back.

I enjoyed listening to it!

I came across this book while researching leadership in women. The book has a very coherent structure and has examined the important key points in this field from the perspective of psychology and sociology. I enjoyed listening to it.

Great leadership guide

I found this book refreshing as it provided a balanced view of leadership and gave practical advice on how women who are new or budding leaders could rise in leadership roles.

Of course it’s down to applying the knowledge, but what you hear I sounds grounded and relatable with actions you can take away to implement straight away.

I loved the examples at the end of well known female leaders, and taking an inside look at how they rose to the top too. Many of them starting for the bottom even as interns.

Worth the listen.

Time to step up!

“A great leader inspires people to be confident in themselves.”

I am guilty. I am guilty of doing it wrong. MICROMANAGEMENT is part of my being an OC. And yet, Lindsey Begue has not made me feel ashamed but taught me to focus on bettering myself in the present, progress, and ascend to success.  

The audiobook has helped me stop beating myself up with this impostor syndrome I had, which I was really good at. Most importantly, It made me step out of my comfort zone and become an expert in the area I was struggling with.

This well-written book will mould you into a genuinely respectable, influential, and effective leader (not just a manager by title). In essence, it provides the steps necessary to step up the ladder-  that is, by being more vocal in meetings, applying for higher-level leadership roles and having a firm and direct presence in negotiations. Furthermore, it provides a method of leading and instilling confidence, despite the jealousy of female peers. 

This audiobook is made even more enjoyable and encouraging by the narrator's voice.

What a great book to empower women

While I am not a female, I was able to understand and benefit from the information provided in this book. For seasoned female leaders, this book provides a refresher in connecting and grooming the next generation of female leaders. Such an enlightening book. This book is written with a lot of compassion and empathy for women thinking about stepping up to leadership roles as team managers or subject matter experts. The author covers confidence building, getting clear on your leadership style, building negotiation skills, creating a goal-focused team, resolving work-related conflict, and so much more! While reading this book, I liked how it is well-explained and breakdown every detail, so it’s easy to digest. I like that this is a step-by-step method for women to build their path to success. This is a must-read for any woman in leadership or wanting to move up in leadership roles. It is very easy to read, and a lot of learning about what to do and what not to do!
I recommend reading this book.

There’s no need to act like a man!

Every female leader, current or aspiring, will benefit from this audiobook. The fact that it is written by someone who has walked the walk is extremely useful; as it sets it apart from other business books written by academics.

I particularly love Chapter 6 which focuses on negotiating and eliminating fear. The information in this chapter is particularly empowering since women generally find negotiating difficult based on socialization. I’ve heard it said that we don’t get what we deserve, we get what we negotiate. This book has brought meaning to that concept. This is impacting information delivered in an inspirational tone.
