Event details

Women are efficient in their work, meet their deadlines, move things forward, perform exceptionally and yet they are STILL passed over for promotions. One factor that negatively impacts a woman’s career mobility is her decision to downplay who she is, what she does and the value she contributes to an organization.

Join Fairygodboss and career coach Ericka Spradley for a discussion on how to "Ditch The Downplay.” Ericka encourages women to confidently advocate for themselves, identify their assets, and stop sitting on their “ask” so they can play bigger in their career. During this webinar you'll:

  • Discover communication tactics that enhance your presence and personal power
  • Identify “assets” you possess (those that are NOT holding you back) so you can ditch perfection and stop undermining your professional success
  • Identify the 5 detrimental ways women undermine and sabotage their professional success
  • Understand how to position your “ask” (what you need to advance and/or accelerate your career)
  • Gain clarity so you can communicate your skill-based results (value)

Continue the conversation in Ericka's FGB group Confident Career Woman.
