*****BOOK GIVEAWAY*******
(5 copies available)
Nicole Williams is the tell-it-like-it-is career expert who you wish could fight your work battles for you. But with her ingenious approach-taking the tactics used to land a man and applying them to your career-you'll be able to handle any work situation and come out on top. Here, Nicole introduces twenty tried-and-true dating rules such as "Don't Give Away the Milk for Free" and "Don't Waste the Pretty" and reveals how they can be applied just as effectively in the office. Other strategies include:
· Keep It Brief
· Don't Bash Your Ex
· Have Others Sing Your Praises
· Play Hard to Get
· Keep the Fire Alive
· Be Willing to Walk Away
Among other topics, Nicole dishes on how much to reveal at work as well as what to put up with from your boss (and, more importantly, what not to). She tackles everything from having the money talk to leaving them wanting more on a job interview. And sprinkled throughout GIRL ON TOP is fashion advice ("Top Ten Commandments of Style") and checklists to determine if you need to get a life.
Nicole's keen insight and candid advice will teach you how to recognize the good guys from the bad, win the kudos of those who matter, and create the career of your dreams.

no I do not think it is time to climb the ladder... just make it through

I suppose it depends on the ladder you are climbing. Some people have gotten off the corporate ladder and are climbing a different ladder as a volunteer. Maybe they are learning new skills or making unexpected connections. Maybe we'll learn to barter.
I don't know where we're headed in this economy, but I'm glad Nicole Williams is sharing her perspective in THE GIRL ON TOP.

I think it depends on how secure the person feels in their job. Being driven to climb the ladder and take on more challenges can be viewed as a very good trait and may, in fact, be more important in this tougher economy where there are more people competing for the same jobs.
Thanks!

This looks like an interesting and helpful book. Please enter me in! :)
As far as climbing the ladder goes... I think sometimes you have to in order to get ahead at work, and it's not a bad thing, unless you are hurting others on the way.
