Giving Women Courage in their Career Development

Women desire to differentiate themselves through making an impact with their ideas. There are innate character traits women have keeping them from speaking up. Gia Ganesh is a  career strategist who helps mid-career professionals discover and move into meaningful and fulfilling work.

What are you career development challenges? You can add your voice to the discussion in one of three ways:

  1. Call and leave a voicemail at 708-365-9822, or text your comments to the same number
  2. Go to TheVoiceofJobSeekers.com, press the “Send Voicemail” button on the right side of your screen and leave a message
  3. Send email feedback to [email protected]

 

In addition to her role as a career strategist, Gia is a member of the Forbes Coaches Council, and her career advice has appeared in Forbes, CareerBuilder, and Lifehack. The basis for our discussion comes from her article,

Top 5 Career Must-Have’s for Women

    Here are some highlights from our discussion:
    • Gia shares how passionate she is about career development for women
    • We discuss the issue of men and women handle emotions
    • Although men take longer to react, when they do, it’s more forceful
    • How does emotion matter in his or her career trajectory
    • Interviews are much more pressure and questions demand more energy
    • More scrutiny required as the process has lengthened
    • Preparation is essential for interviews at all levels including the entry level
    • Gia challenges her clients to map out want they want in their careers
    • When your values are unfulfilled, your career might be unfulfilled
    • Speaking up is a differentiating factor for women
    • Around 20:00 as I was wrapping up she shared about women are most hard on themselves
    • She discussed her take-a-way from talking with Marshall Goldsmith
    • This sparked more discussion about how unfair expectations are put on women from men
    • We discuss “perfectionists syndrome”
