Rise

3 Practical Steps for Advancing Your Career, Standing Out as a Leader, and Liking Your Life

De: Patty Azzarello

Narrado por: Patty Azzarello

A straight-shooting Silicon Valley executive reveals insider career strategies to becoming a great leader, developing your network, succeeding without wasting time, and managing trade-offs between your work and life so your life works.

Patty Azzarello became the youngest general manager at Hewlett-Packard at age 33, ran a $1 billion software business at 35, and became a CEO at 38 - all without turning into a self-centered, miserable jerk. In Rise, Azzarello shares the insider secrets to advancing your career (while having a life) in three practical steps:

• Do better: Set ruthless priorities, and work and lead more strategically to deal with frustrating obstacles.
• Look better: Build your credibility with the people who can help (or blacklist) you.
• Connect better: Develop your network without being political. Get on "the list" of people who get the best opportunities.

Whether you are just starting up the corporate ladder, stuck midcareer, transitioning, or eyeing the corner office, Rise shows you the difference between getting ahead and just working hard.

Tactical actions to take!

Directness and no fluff book with tactical actions to take! Great for early career folks and as a mentor to recommend to your mentees!

Fantastic book but read it

Patti is great but not a professional reader. The voice is not one to listen to for hours. The book is amazing. Patti please get someone to read this for you!

Every leader must Read!

This was one of the best leadership books I have read. I considered this a must read for all leaders!

A guide for all leaders.

Like all the examples and the sugestions.
Never boring and a guide for my work.

Great content, tough listen

Very choppy sentence delivery. I needed to listen at 2.25x for it to sound fluid. Great content in the book though. Really enjoyed it.
