Welcome to the world of Mrs. Moneypenny, where it's all about who you know and what you know. Where you can't have it all, but you have to do it all. And where women wanting to reach the top need to learn to say "no." The high-flying, uber-connected Financial Times columnist is on a mission to help you get ahead at work. In this incisive, hilariously frank book, Mrs. Moneypenny tells you everything you need to know about taking control of your career. From nurturing your personal network and getting noticed, to the art of outsourcing and understanding numbers, she distils a lifetime's experience of running businesses and shaping careers into original, practical advice. Whether you're just starting out or a rung from the top, whether you're a store manager or a CEO, let Mrs. Moneypenny be your ultimate mentor - and guide you to success. -Arianna Huffington, president and editor in chief of the Huffington Post Media Group "Mrs. Moneypenny's advice is tough but spot on. Aim for the top. Jettison guilt. Outsource like a madwoman. Success requires sharp heels-and a sharp mind- but if you're willing to work hard, it is absolutely there for the taking." -Laura Vanderkam, author of All the Money in the World and 168 Hours "Sharpen Your Heels is an easy and critical read. If you want to reach the top there's no better way than following the example and lessons of those who have gotten there before you. Take Mrs. Moneypenny's advice straight to the top!" -Barbara Corcoran, star of ABC's Shark Tank; founder of The Corcoran Group "Mrs. Moneypenny covers the career basics and more. As a mother, sister, aunt, manager and friend this is a book I'll recommend to all the women I care about." -Maryanne B. Rainone, senior vice president and managing director, Heyman Associates "Sharpen Your Heels is such a clever and insightful read, I found myself (momentarily) wishing I were a woman so I could follow my friend Mrs. Moneypenny's sage advice and use her and her circle of power women as examples while I climbed the corporate ladder." -Ali Velshi, CNN anchor and chief business correspondent "Straightforward, to the point, idealistic and pragmatic: wonderful woman." -Cristiana Falcone, World Economic Forum "Sharpen Your Heels is filled with up-to-date strategies and practical tips to propel your career to the next level-regardless of your age or current position." -Jil Konrath, author of SNAP Selling and Selling to Big Companies |
