Think of CLIMB as Lean In Part II from the perspective of a high-achieving African-American woman. This book is loaded with nuggets of wisdom and actionable advice that will get you thinking about your career path and the actions you should take now.
For example, do you have a mentor and sponsor? Do you know the difference between the two? This could be the difference between landing a highly visible project with senior leaders and being stuck in your career. This book uses external sources to shed light on the importance of mentors and sponsors and explain why they are an integral part of your career strategy. Gadsden-Williams also reveals her experience with mentors and sponsors and explains how she built career-moving relationships with many influential decision-makers.
Are you a working woman trying to “have it all” or find balance in your life? Gadsden-Williams provides insights on that too. She introduces you to her husband of over 20 years, reveals her shocking health diagnosis, and discusses decisions she made in the workplace that impact the quality of her personal life.
Through the pages of this book, you’ll realize that Michelle is an achiever in every sense of the world. She worked hard and she has the accolades to prove it. Be prepared to take notes as Michelle tells her story of success, ambition, and sacrifice – a story that many women of color can relate to. Not only does she provide you with an empowering personal story, but she leaves you with key takeaways that will help you climb in your personal and professional pursuits. Either you’ll be inspired to go further up the corporate ranks or walk another path that better aligns with your goals and priorities.
