Format: Paperback

Number of Pages: 176


Women have more career choices today than ever before: there are more courses, occupations, professions and industries to chose from, yet we still have very few resources to turn to for practical, commonsense advice. Claire Linton-Evans was a young Australian woman on a mission and by age 27 was running a division of an international investment bank. From here she began mentoring women and quickly realised that the questions and themes women struggled with are always the same. From these caffeine and technology-fuelled discussions Climbing the Ladder in Heels was born. It documents the most common requests for advice and provides an access-all-areas guide for any woman starting her career, building her career, taking time out from her career or entering the corridors of senior management. Somewhere between a translation guide and a career travel companion, this book is aimed at helping women get ahead in their chosen field. It explains the rules for working in corporate life, identifies ways to promote and protect yourself, highlights traps women commonly fall into and suggests professional development opportunities that embrace the strengths women naturally bring to the workplace.
