This presentation accompanied a Jam Session for Ellevate. It focuses on common mistakes and easy solutions to keep your career on track and avoid the pitfalls that derail and delay success. Although this discussion was focused on professional women in business it can be of value to everyone; business professionals, entrepreneurs, men, women, even educators and consultants. A recording of the entire talk is available on the Ellevate website.
