How Women Rise by Sally Helgeson and Marshall Goldsmith
How We Rise
12 [BAD] HABITS.
Helgesen and Goldsmith describe 12 behaviors they see women
habitually fall into that undermine them in a work culture or
leadership environment created by and often dominated by men.
How We Rise
02
— A WISE WOMAN
The answer is not to be
like men, or to lead like
men. Don’t be satisfied
with status quo.
HABIT 1.
RELUCTANCE TO CLAIM
YOUR ACHIEVEMENTS.
If you don’t speak up, you’re also
ensuring your team’s work isn’t
getting seen. Positive visibility is
your job as a leader.
HABIT 2.
EXPECTING OTHERS TO
SPONTANEOUSLY NOTICE AND
REWARD YOUR CONTRIBUTION.
Make your aims and desires clear.
EXPERTISE
Deep knowledge and
skills
CONNECTIONS
Influence
POSITION
Your organizational or
societal role
PERSONAL
AUTHORITY
Charisma
HABIT 3.
OVERVALUING EXPERTISE.
Recognize and balance the four
kinds of power.
HABIT 4.
BUILDING RATHER THAN
LEVERAGING RELATIONSHIPS.
How can you bring your skills for
forging deep connections into play
as you build relationships that will
be advantageous for your future?
HABIT 5.
FAILING TO ENLIST
ALLIES FROM DAY ONE.
Your success is both what you do
and who you are allied with. Who
can you connect with to be
successful in your role?
HABIT 6.
PUTTING YOUR JOB
BEFORE YOUR CAREER.
Balance the gift of loyalty with
healthy self-interest.
“In order to rise, you have
to lay your burden down.”
HABIT 7.
THE
PERFECTION
TRAP.
HABIT 8.
THE DISEASE TO PLEASE.
Who do you want to be?
What do you want to achieve?
HABIT 9.
MINIMIZING.
01
SAY WHAT
YOU MEAN
Be direct and honest.
02
HOLD YOUR
SPACE
Don’t make your voice,
your ideas, or your
physical space smaller.
03
BE
PRESENT
Don’t let yourself get
distracted with
multi-tasking.
LEVERAGING EMOTION
Be rooted in emotion. Express observations.
Lead toward specific actions.
COMMUNICATION STYLES
Adjust your communication style for your audience.
Know when to skip the small talk and be direct.
BUILDING BONDS
Consider ways to build bonds that do not require a lot of
conversation or deep self-disclosure.
HABIT 10.
TOO MUCH.
HABIT 11.
RUMINATING
01
VENT.
Let it out. Vent to
safe friends.
02
EXERCISE.
Move your body.
03
ACT.
Choose one thing
that moves you
forward and do it.
04
LET IT GO.
Let it go, let it go,
let it go.
HABIT 12.
LETTING YOUR RADAR
DISTRACT YOU.
Acknowledge thoughts and feelings.
Find strength in them. Let them
inform the richness of your insights.
HOW WE RISE.
03
Leading authentically as a woman.
How We Rise
DO THIS, NOT THAT.
01
DEFINE
SUCCESS
Who do you want to be? What do you want to
achieve?
02
CLAIM YOUR
ACHIEVEMENTS
Practice saying “I”. Write down your achievements.
03 BUILD ALLIES Who can help you be successful?
04
LEVERAGE
EMOTION
Let your emotions ground you and inform your
insights.
05
LAY YOUR
BURDEN DOWN
Let go of external definitions of success.
CREATE VIRTUOUS CYCLES.
BUILD ALLIES.
Who can you support?
USE YOUR VOICE.
Voice your ideas. Use your voice to
lift yourself and others up.
BE CLEAR ON
YOUR GOALS.
Practice saying who you want to be
and what you want to achieve.
YOU WERE
MEANT TO
RISE.
TAKEAWAYS.
