By the bestselling author of What Got You Here Won’t Get You There

Do you hesitate about putting forward ideas? Are you reluctant to claim credit for your achievements? Do you find it difficult to get the support you need from your boss or the recognition you deserve from your colleagues?

If your answer to any of these is ‘Yes’, How Women Rise will help get you back on track. Inspiring and practical by turns, it identifies 12 common habits that can prove an obstacle to future success and tells you how to overcome them. In the process, it points the way to a career that will satisfy your ambitions and help you make the difference you want to make in the world.

Critic reviews

Really practical . . . guidance on the habits you fall into that aren’t helping you achieve the success you deserve. It’s fascinating. (Lorraine Candy)
How Women Rise is a great read for any woman who wants to identify self-defeating behaviors that are holding her back, gain insight into why she engages in those behaviors, and develop skills to confidently achieve her goals. (Lois P. Frankel, author of Nice Girls Don’t Get the Corner Office)
Sally and Marshall give new meaning to the term ‘dream team’. Together they have produced a masterpiece, an over-the-moon but magnificently down-to-earth leadership book for the ages. (Tom Peters, author of In Search of Excellence)

Incredible

A life changing book. I wish it had been available years ago. I constantly found myself nodding and felt like the writers knew me. Will make changes going forward.

Very inspiring!

This book is easily to listen to. I could relate to some of the limiting habits that were mentioned. There are also guidelines to understanding the cause with methods to correct them. Highly recommended!

Thought provoking

Really enjoyed listening to this book in the car over the last two weeks. So much to think about and so much to gain insight on. I strongly recommend this to anyone working in a team. Everyone can learn something new and learn to see things from someone else's point of view.

Practical advice for women in business

Really enjoyed listening to this audiobook as part of our book club. It’s full of practical strategies to help yourself succeed and focused on women specifically. Found it enlightening - sometimes challenging when self reflecting but that’s a good thing.
