In my session last week with the awesome and amazing Seattle PyLadies, I referenced a few of my favorite career resources:
Marcia Reynold's book, Wander Woman, was a revelation for me. It helped me understand my career restlessness, and really adopt and live my bloom where you are planted mantra. It's a practical and reaffirming read.
Admittedly, I'm a MBTI devotee. No other tool has been as insightful for me and my self-understanding. I used In the Grip, focused on type and stress, in a many courses - most especially, negotiation, where stress is a given. It's a must have for any professional to build their self-awareness.
Lastly, I love Sallie Krawcheck's honest advice. I'm a big fan of what she publishes on LinkedIn, and I highly recommend her book, Own It. It's a useful career playbook that focuses on capitalizing on your strengths and existing superpowers.
What else would you recommend?
