Master the balance between working on your career and working in
it. Intelligence Isn't Enough helps Black professionals make strategic
decisions and learn the unspoken rules for success.
Recounting the frustration she felt as a young Black woman beginning her
career, Carice Anderson knows that many Black professionals are relying
on their education and intellect alone to be successful in the
workplace. In this book, she empowers young Black professionals by
equipping them with advice and little-known principles of career success
from her experiences and interviews with thirty successful Black
leaders.
Intelligence Isn't Enough is divided into six chapters that guide
readers through what Anderson calls the three "major corporate muscle
groups"
-
Knowing yourself-- understanding your story and investigating your
mindset
-
Knowing others--building and sustaining important relationships in the
workplace
-
Knowing your environment--analyzing your organization's culture
Anderson will teach you how to integrate the knowledge of these three
groups to craft an authentic personal brand and communication style that
will help you maximize your impact.
Using personal stories, quotes, lessons learned, and advice from both
the author and Black leaders who have worked in some of the finest
institutions across North America, Africa, and Europe, Black
professionals will learn tips and tools to strategically chart their
career paths and advance in the workplace for lifelong success.
