The world has awakened to the urgent need to focus on women's advancement - companies with gender-balanced leadership are far more likely to outperform their peers, and the evolving expectations of leadership align to women's natural strengths. Yet just 10 percent of Fortune 500 CEOs and less than 30 percent of senior leaders are women, and the pace of growth is shockingly slow, made worse by COVID-19 and its aftermath. What does it take for women to ascend to the highest levels of leadership? In Her Own Voice from Jennifer McCollum, CEO of Linkage, a global leadership development firm, sheds light on this timely topic. Backed by in-depth and enlightening research, this book examines the specific challenges women still face in the workplace. Whether we're contending with our own inner critic, being expected to prove our value time and again, or navigating the often-intimidating world of negotiating for ourselves, women today still have unique obstacles as we advance our careers - but they need not become roadblocks. In Her Own Voice outlines how readers can overcome these obstacles, with key competencies and action steps such as quieting your inner critic, discarding biases, building confidence, gaining clarity about the future, and more. Supported by data and infused with compelling real-life stories, it's a blueprint for helping readers identify, measure, and conquer what's holding women back at any stage of their careers.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49692964028689,"sku":"GOR013585149","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49750125084945,"sku":"NGR9781637744109","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49927147847953,"sku":"CIN1637744102G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51078478922001,"sku":"CIN1637744102VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52511217189137,"sku":"NIN9781637744109","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53148264694033,"sku":"GOR014777730","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1637744102.jpg?v=1751442272"},{"product_id":"men-at-work-book-jennifer-mccollum-9781637748077","title":"Men At Work","description":"Inclusive workplaces are essential to build high-performing teams, fuel collaboration and innovation, spark trust and belonging, and attract and retain the best people. Yet even today, women continue to be left behind. How can we fix this? The surprising answer: By shifting the conversation to include men. In Men at Work, Jennifer McCollum, President and CEO of Catalyst, a nonprofit that helps companies create high-performing workplaces by advancing women and accelerating inclusion, shares the secret: engaging men as gender partners. Drawing from both honest human stories along with original Catalyst research data, McCollum demonstrates that we can't advance women without the participation of men as mutually accountable partners. Men At Work centers on freeing men from the pressure to exclusively behave in ways that reinforce rigid masculine traits and behaviors - being competitive, aggressive, and stoic. Without blaming or shaming anyone, McCollum shows men how enriching it is to break free of norms and how to do it. She presents takeaways from interviews with men and women at leading companies around the globe who have successfully created inclusive work cultures. She also shares insights from Catalyst's MARC (Mutual Accountability, Real Change) initiative, which provides the understanding, language, and behaviors men - and everyone - can use in their day-to-day work as they move toward becoming gender partners. The great news is that men want to experience inclusion and belonging, which everyone deserves. Men at Work gives them permission and the practical tools for doing so, in a way that helps men and women alike to thrive at work.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":52694661234961,"sku":"NGR9781637748077","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53121802600721,"sku":"NIN9781637748077","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53266973753617,"sku":"CIN1637748078VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781637748077.jpg?v=1770894429"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-au\/collections\/author-books-by-jennifer-mccollum.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
