When you are just starting out in your career, the prospect of finding your way towards a lofty goal can seem so daunting, especially if you don't have people in your family who have navigated the corporate paths. It can very much be a snakes and ladders career path! Now thanks to Mary-Beth, you don't have to make the slides down, and find the energy for the ladder climbs as some of us have! This is a great guide for those looking for help on how to make big bold career moves and encourages the reader to draw upon their unique backgrounds to differentiate themselves and draw upon transferable lessons.
Dr Jen Frahm, Co-Founder Agile Change Leadership Institute
There is no better time than the present, to step into a future that excites your soul and reveals your true potential. For years to come you will thank yourself for believing in your true value and there is no better feeling. The first step is big, bold, and brave. And then comes an excitement that builds its own momentum. As a woman who raised five children including two sets of twins while juggling three degrees on her long and windy road to C-Suite, this is the book I wish I had 25 years ago!
Beautifully written, highly engaging, and extremely practical, it's what every woman needs to read on their unique journey of becoming. No longer will you hesitate in trusting your knowledge, skills and expertise. It's your time to confidently tread a new path, well equipped by the framework provided to guide your future success.

Most of us, will at some time, move from one role to another, from one career to another. When that time comes, are you prepared to be the best you can be? Mary-Beth provides great insights and advice from her experience as the singer who became a CIO.
Will you know the value you will bring to the new role or career? Will you capture all the transferrable skills you can bring from past positions? What will you do when you start to doubt yourself? What will you do if you do not get the role and most importantly what will you learn?
Mary-Beth provides you with the answers in this beautifully written autobiographical narrative.

Mary-Beth's focus on helping people to transition in their careers is an increasingly essential skill to learn in a modern, technology driven, fast paced world. Her ability to tell stories that engage means that the lessons in career and leadership are accessible to anyone.
I especially love how she has been able to turn her expertise in change management to help the individual navigate through change in their career.
Buy a copy today, read it and stop hesitating about making changes in your career. Even better, buy a second copy and give it to someone who needs encouragement to reach their own destiny.
