Sommario/riassunto

Many women today wonder: what will it take to get that seat at the boardroom table? Earn that coveted promotion? Or simply have their voices heard? Taking the Stage provides a comprehensive, proven approach that enables women to come forward into the spotlight and speak up, stand out, and succeed.  Based on a program from the Humphrey Group that has been delivered to over 400,000 women worldwide, Taking the Stage shows women-no matter their age, rank, or profession-how to communicate with courage and confidence in every situation, from formal speeches to brief hallway conversations.
