Career Leadership book: Confidence Communication Management
There's no shortage of advice on what to do to drive career success—but very little is said about who to be and listening to your intuition. While leadership skills are important, self-trust is the foundation that great leadership is built upon—and developing it is a deeply personal process.
How do you find the freedom to throw away the script and lead others with confidence?
How can you transition from subject matter expert to strategic thinker?
How do you show emotion and build respect at the same time?
It's all possible when you trust your gut to make the decisions that give you the freedom to move forward.
Written by former Wall Street executive and TED speaker, Marisa Santoro

Praise for Own Your Authority!

Very strongly recommended as a core addition to community, corporate, college and university library business motivation and self-help / self-improvement collections.
— Midwest Book Review
There's a subject-matter void that few books or online courses can address: learning how to lead. Career coach and leadership trainer Santoro offer a good alternative to face-to-face coaching sessions, emphasizing authenticity and the gutsiness to follow one's instincts. Her road map is a non-sequential list of activities: practice self-promotion (without self-aggrandizement); emphasize problem solutions; build a dynamic network; don't be afraid to ask; avoid "justs" and "buts" in written and spoken language; trust your gut. Each section not only weaves in personal and client anecdotes, but also captures in memorable phrases the things that make a leader better: practice the pregnant pause (i.e., listen); is it "I can't" or "I choose not to"?; radio silence is not a no; and, in today's remote workplace, remember to schedule check-ins.

Effectively communicate with confidence
Speak up with clear communication and intention, thrive when taking consistent measured risk in your career―and become the influential and confident leader you know you can be.
Too often, we become stuck in our own head, focus on our fears, and fail to breakthrough to our goals.
To become an effective leader, you need to silence the self-sabotaging thought patterns and learn to trust yourself. Once you establish a trusted connection with yourself, career opportunities will follow.
