How Women Rise, co-authored by Marshall Goldsmith and Sally Helgesen, is a transformational guide aimed at empowering women to achieve their full potential in business and beyond. Building on the principles introduced in Goldsmith's international bestseller What Got You Here Won't Get You There, this book specifically addresses the unique challenges faced by women in their career trajectories.

Do you hesitate to put forward your ideas during meetings? Are you reluctant to claim credit for your achievements, often downplaying your contributions? Do you find it challenging to gain the support you need from your boss or the recognition you deserve from your colleagues? If you find yourself answering 'Yes' to any of these questions, How Women Rise is the book that will help you break free from these self-limiting habits.

With an inspiring and practical approach, Goldsmith and Helgesen identify 12 common habits that often hinder women's progress in the workplace. These habits are dissected comprehensively, revealing how they can be obstacles to your future success. More importantly, the authors provide clear strategies on how to overcome these barriers, enabling you to navigate your career with confidence and purpose.

Whether you are striving for a leadership position or simply seeking to make a more significant impact in your current role, How Women Rise offers invaluable insights and actionable advice. The book not only guides you through self-awareness and self-improvement but also illuminates a path towards a more satisfying and fulfilling career. It is about recognising your worth and making a lasting difference in the world.
