Sally Helgesen is a best-selling author, speaker and women leadership expert.
Over the last 30 years she has worked with women leaders to recognize and act on their greatest strengths. Her most recent book, How Women Rise, became the top-selling title in its field within only a week of publication.
In this episode Sally shared a lot of valuable insights on the impediments preventing women from moving up and the behaviours and steps women need to take. We talked about several of the key habits from her book as well as dealing with different expectations, self-promotion, and how the businesses of today and tomorrow can greatly benefit from including women in leadership.
We recorded this episode live on stage as part of the Emirates Literature Festival.
If you'd like to get in touch with Sally, you can find her on LinkedIn and her book is available on Amazon or any bookstore who know what's good for them.
