32 MINS

Guests: Sally Helgesen and Marshall Goldsmith, Authors of “How Women Rise: Break the 12 Habits Holding You Back from Your Next Raise, Promotion or Job” Almost half of the workers in America’s big businesses are women.

But leadership experts Sally Helgesen and Marshall Goldsmith say there are 12 habits common among women, that may also be holding them back. Ironically, these same habits worked to their advantage when they were at the bottom of the pyramid, but they’re a barrier to climbing higher.
