Ways to Promote Yourself

Research indicates that one of the key factors that helps women advance their careers and businesses is their willingness to promote themselves. “Women who are more proactive self-promoters are better able to advance their careers and increase their salaries, and are overall more professionally satisfied, than women who were less likely to make their achievements visible.” Ilene H. Lang, president and CEO of Catalyst, a researched based organization expanding opportunities for women and business.
