In Wild Courage, Jenny Wood presents the ultimate approach to getting what you want. Reclaiming nine traits - Weird, Selfish, Shameless, Obsessed, Nosy, Manipulative, Brutal, Reckless and Bossy - that are traditionally seen in a negative light, Wood reveals how to apply these qualities in a savvy and sane way to supercharge your chances of getting ahead, whether you're trying to snag a promotion, impress your new boss or land a life-changing deal.
Inspired by her groundbreaking coaching program, Wood offers an arsenal of tactical prompts to catapult you forward, like how to:
- Embrace Your Weirdness: Uncover the power of standing out and making your mark with authenticity.
