She teaches you how to eliminate these unconscious mistakes that could be holding you back and offers invaluable coaching tips that can easily be incorporated into your social and business skills. Stop making “nice girl” errors that can become career pitfalls, such as:
Mistake #13: Avoiding office politics. If you don’t play the game, you can’t possibly win.
