Using Your Voice to Advocate for Yourself and Your Career

De: Joyel Crawford

Narrado por: Joyel Crawford

How do you get to the next level of your career? How do you use your influence to get the most out of your team? How do you confidently use your professional brand to nail the interview? How do you deal with a micromanager?

It takes courageous action and using your voice to get you where you want to go. In Show Your Ask, Certified Professional Career Coach Joyel Crawford draws on her two decades of experience in career and leadership development with practical tools and tips that she shares with thousands of clients and audiences across the country. Crawford uses her passion for career and leadership development to give listeners several career coaching sessions on how to build momentum by using their voices to advocate for themselves and their careers. Her humor and infectious energy provide insight to navigating one’s career no matter what stage they are—new or experienced.

She digs deeper into tackling topics like effective communication, emotional intelligence, interviewing, professional branding, negotiation, giving/receiving feedback, delegation, creating boundaries, self-leadership, and finding a mentor or sponsor while giving the listener a moment to reflect and create a realistic action plan to put in motion.

Crawford challenges listeners to take concerted action to create the career they desire while not losing yourself or your voice in the process.

Dense, Engaging and Helpful

A really quick and dense book read by the engaging author. It is full of stories, advice, fresh perspectives and helpful exercises for those who don't know even know where to begin when advocating for themselves and their futures. No fluff - just the good stuff! I really appreciated the section on sponsors and mentors as someone who didn't understand the difference. Now I know who I am looking for to help me navigate the waters of growth!

Just Great!

Joyel has given us JUST GREAT advice, guidance, and follow-through! Knowing her from the telecommunications company we both worked for has given me not only an amazing friend (albeit long-distance), but our relationship gives me access to her wisdom. I was so excited to see her book published! And even more excited when she published an audio version - in her own voice! Trust me, folks - she's as genuine, caring, and smart as she comes across in "Show Your Ask." Don't pass it up!
HRG-that's me
