All Working Women Should Read


Mrs Moneypenny's Careers Advice for Ambitious Women


I have always had something against self-help books and I would have classified this as such. Until I read it.




The book is full of obvious statements, that we all know, and that’s the best part of the book because it is often the obvious we tend to overlook. It is also very useful to have them all compiled in one single, and attractive, book. It’s attractiveness doesn’t lay only in its cover, it has wide margins to make notes, a summary of the key action points at the end of each chapter and it makes very clear what actions apply at each stage of a woman’s career.




This is a very practical guide, with references and links to set the reader on her way to a successful career. Do not think for a minute that Mrs Moneypenny’s advice is suitable to women whose sight is on the boardroom, it applies to any woman - and man for that matter - who is interested in making a success of her working life.




My Lent resolution is to put follow her advice.
