Editorial Review:

Favoring neither the "in-your-face" aggressive tactics of the "break-through-the-glass-ceiling" school of thought, nor the "sugar-and-spice-and-everything-nice" little-girl approach, Climbing the Corporate Ladder in High Heels shows women how to be outstandingly successful and personally actualized without becoming just like men.

There are 63 million working women in America, but only eight are top company CEOs. While women make up nearly 50 percent of the workforce, working women perform 90 percent of household and childcare duties. Women are left wondering, "Do I have to make a choice between my career or my life?" This book answers that question.

Climbing the Corporate Ladder in High Heels is the first book to teach women:

• How to climb the corporate ladder and have fun doing it. • How to use 12 of their natural roles and talents to advance in Corporate America. • How to thrive in a downsizing and outsourcing global economy. • How to achieve both a rewarding career and a fulfilling life. • What to do when they hit the glass ceiling.

Editorial Review:

"Life-Work Balance" is the first issue of a new occasional series published by ACRL. This series will provide practical guidance on workplace and professional issues. "Life-Work Balance" helps you assess your current balance and provides tools for planning and making changes.Are you living and working the way you want to? Or are you counting on cloning technology to eventually save you from a frantic schedule and a 'to do' list as long as the Oxford English Dictionary? This active guide will give you a chance to reflect on your priorities and honestly assess the choices you are making about your time and energy. Simply reading this book won't lighten your workload, alter other people's expectations, or make stress disappear.However, if you apply the concepts and tools you learn here and commit to following through, you will discover new ways of both thinking and acting that will help you make decisions that support who you want to be and what you want to achieve. These decisions will often be difficult and may challenge organizational norms, other people's value systems, or even your own assumptions. But, defining what balance looks like for you, recognizing what you can change, and creating an action plan will bring you closer to achieving your personal and professional goals. You can begin by trying out a few of the simple but powerful ideas and exercises here.
