Pivotal Career Moments: How confidence can impact career success and what to do about it - Paperback

by Vanessa Venning (Author), Marianne Perkovic (Author)

By the time women get to executive level in their corporate life, their confidence should be at its peak, right? But perhaps you're experiencing the opposite...

• struggling with a collapse in confidence
• lost ambition or purpose
• blaming yourself for situations that deep down you know are outside your control.

It sounds extreme, but it's more common than you think!

Through their research with over 120 executive women, and their personal and professional experiences, Vanessa Venning and Marianne Perkovic

discovered a strange and common phenomenon. Women who had been rock solid in their confidence found themselves in a pivotal moment in their career. Corporate or personal pressures became unbearable. Their confidence plummeted. And these women felt crippled by the experience.

In Pivotal Career Moments Vanessa and Marianne reveal:

• the nature of 'pivotal career moments' and why women experience them
• the top three confidence derailers and how to spot them in time
• how to use their Think Beyond model to restore calm and clarity, create a new future and commit to it.

Vanessa and Marianne have created an insightful, warm, firm, and uplifting guide for executive women facing a pivotal career moment. You will learn from other senior women who share their experiences and you will discover how to apply self-compassion and evidence-based strategies in the Think Beyond model to navigate this moment to a successful future.
