Happy Friday!

I hope this E-Mail finds you healthy and well as we close out another work week!  Did you get everything you wanted out of the week? 

Most people have a hard time asking for what they want professionally, whether it’s a promotion, more money, greater flexibility, or a new opportunity.  As woman, we tend to underestimate our abilities and contribution to the organization. (STOP DOING THAT!)  As a result we continue to earn less, on average, for the same performance, and remain underrepresented in top jobs (Read more on this!).  Today’s article from Success.com provides 9 steps to ask for what you want and actually get it.  You will never know the answer if you don’t ask the question!  Advocate for yourself!

“Opportunities are rarely offered, they are seized.” – Sheryl Sandberg
