It explores what women can do to achieve careers in professional service firms commensurate with their knowledge, skills, experience and talent. The book draws on the knowledge accumulated during the author's thirty years of experience working in and for such firms, supplemented by what she has learned from her work with hundreds of professional women and men that she has coached in accountancy, law and consulting firms as well as in award-winning women's leadership programmes.The practical exercises that appear within the book have been extensively tested and finely honed over time and are designed to build on one another, thereby allowing readers to manage their careers efficiently and effectively. They help the reader to articulate what she wants from her career and what she can offer a professional service firm, ensuring that others understand her ambitions, hopes and dreams as well as her knowledge, skills and expertise. The exercises build to provide guidance for managing office politics, developing business and ultimately obtaining the desired results from appraisals and promotion opportunities. 606 $aCareer development 606 $aBusinesswomen 606 $aLeadership 606 $aBusiness & Economics, Women in Business$2bisacsh 606 $aManagement: leadership & motivation$2bicssc 615 0$aCareer development. 615 0$aBusinesswomen. 615 0$aLeadership. 615 7$aBusiness & Economics, Women in Business. 615 7$aManagement: leadership & motivation. 676 $a381 700 $aTemperley$b Alison$01529571 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910794831203321 996 $aInside knowledge$93773906 997 $aUNINA
