How are we supposed to stay connected to our career goals during a pandemic? How can we be ambitious whilst supporting others? And would it be better to just hide under a rock until all this is over?
Writer, comedian and radio and television presenter Viv Groskop says women can be ambitious and climb to the top while at the same time helping others along the way and not losing their sense of self. Her new book Lift As You Climb: Women, Ambition and How to Change the Story is about goal-setting in tough times, being creative in managing your career and mastering the art of mentoring and peer support, especially at a time when women’s working lives are uniquely threatened.
In her latest book, Viv argues that it is possible for women to balance ambition and compassion. She looks at what sisterhood means today and asks what women can do to make things better for other women and offers guidance on how to do that without disadvantaging yourself — even during a pandemic.
Join us on the 3rd March as we talk to Viv about her latest book and what it means to be a strong, successful and supportive woman in these strange times.
