“You don’t become confident and then act confident. You act your way into confidence.”
– Sally Helgesen
On this episode of The Pivotal Leader, Gina Trimarco interviewed Sally Helgesen, International Speaker, Leadership Consultant & Author.
In her newest book, How Women Rise: Break the 12 Habits Holding You Back from Your Next Raise, Promotion, or Job, Sally and her co-author Marshall Goldsmith, help women identify specific behaviors that keep them from realizing their full potential, no matter what stage they are in their career. They help identify why what worked for them in the past will not necessarily get them where they want to go in the future — and how to finally shed those behaviors so they can advance to the next level, whatever that may be.
