5 posts | 14 read | 7 to read
If you work nonstop without a break...worry about offending others and back down too easily...explain too much when asked for information....or "poll" your friends and colleagues before making a decision, chances are you have been bypassed for promotions and ignored when you expressed your ideas. Although you may not be aware of it, girlish behaviors such as these are sabotaging your career! Dr. Lois Frankel reveals why some women roar ahead in their careers while others stagnate. She's spotted a unique set of behaviors--101 in all--that women learn in girlhood that sabotage them as adults. Now, in this groudbreaking guide, she helps you eliminate these unconscious mistakes that could be holding you back--and offers invaluable coaching tips you can easily incorporate into your social and business skills. If you recognize and change the behaviors that say "girl" not "woman", the results will pay off in carrer opportunites you never thought possible--and in an image that identifies you as someone with the power and know-how to occupy the corner office.

This made me think working life in a new way. I totally recognized myself in many of the mistakes she listed. I think I'll be able to recognize my mistakes easier from now on. I think that many of the advices were good but there is also the factor of cultural differences. I think in nordic countries the working life culture is a bit different and some of the issues we face regularly (for example returning from maternal leave) were not addressed.
