E50: You Build Your Career, No Professional Prince Charming

Inspiration for this week’s episode comes from one of Nicole’s clients: There are no prince charmings. Yet, too many women are acting like the professional version of sleeping beauty, waiting for the professional knight in shining armour or the prince charming to swoop in for their career. It is an enormous mistake.Nicole shares personal stories about how she co-created bad working situations that held her back: staying at a job with a crappy manager who accused her of not being a team player (when he actually meant ‘masculine’), staying in a gendered situation that held her back, accepting poor behavior as part of the experience of getting a promotion. How you can stop being a sleeping beauty and become your own knight with control and joy in your career. Related Episodes: Are you Underpaid, Overworked or Underinvested as a Women in Tech? Career Tip for Women in Tech: Circles of Control How to Identify & Manage the Glass Cliff For more information on how you can build your brave:[email protected]://tricksteinbach.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicoletricksteinbach/https://www.facebook.com/NicoleTrickSteinbach
