The Manatt Women’s Initiative will host the presentation, “Stop Sabotaging Your Career,” on Wednesday, February 11, 2015. The event will be held concurrently in Manatt offices, connected by video conference.

Dr. Lois P. Frankel, bestselling author of Nice Girls Don’t Get the Corner Office and See Jane Lead, joins the Manatt Women’s Initiative to talk about something we all need… how to get out of our own way and avoid the eight most common reasons why smart people derail. Passed over for a well-deserved promotion? Overlooked even when your ideas are great? Denied the bonus you counted on? It may not be the fault of others or a result of your shortcomings. It may be because of your strengths.

Learn the secret strategies and psychological tactics you can put in place today to achieve success tomorrow.

• How to identify your most likely potential career derailer.
• Why expertise in your field just isn't enough–and what critical factors boost your credibility and visibility.
• A communication tool that can get you noticed, admired, and respected.
• Ten top tips that will advance your career faster.

Dr. Lois P. Frankel show us how the qualities we thought were our strengths may actually be hurting our careers. Lois’ book, Stop Sabotaging Your Career, was named "the best unsung business book of the year" by Fast Company magazine before it was even released to the public.

By Invitation Only.
