Courage, Clarity, and Confidence - by Gala Jackson (Hardcover)

About the Book

"Courage, Clarity, and Confidence will help women navigate through what feels like and often is a lonely wilderness: the journey to professional fulfillment. Traditional job search and career transition methods fail women, particularly women of color, especially when they are seeking roles beyond entry-level positions. Common advice for career advancement works for men because those rules were constructed by, well, men. This book will help women stand in their power by re-introducing them to themselves: the woman who is strong, bold, courageous, without the limitations or narratives that have been misaligned to their identity. This book will help women reconnect with their voice, values, and vision to build a successful professional pathway with authenticity, confidence, and boldness with compensation that she deserves."--
