In Her Own Voice: A Woman's Rise to CEO: Overcoming Hurdles to Change the Face of Leadership Audiobook

The world has awakened to the urgent need to focus on women's advancement—companies with gender-balanced leadership are far more likely to outperform their peers, and the evolving expectations of leadership align to women's natural strengths. But we're nowhere near achieving that equity. Less than 10 percent of Fortune 500 CEOs are women, and the pace of growth is shockingly slow, made worse by COVID-19 and its aftermath.

What does it take for women to ascend permanently into leadership roles? In Her Own Voice—written by Jennifer McCollum, CEO of Linkage, a decades-old leadership development firm with a mission to "Change the Face of Leadership"—reveals some answers. Based on twenty-five years of research, Linkage has identified the specific hurdles women face: Inner Critic, Internal Bias, Clarity, Proving Your Value, Recognized Confidence, Branding and Presence, Making the Ask, and Networking.

In Her Own Voice outlines the key competencies and action steps to overcome these obstacles. Backed with data and infused with compelling real-life stories, it's a blueprint for helping listeners identify, measure, and conquer what's holding women back at any stage of their careers.
