It's Not a Glass Ceiling, It's a Sticky Floor

Today's show is all about "sticky floors", not glass ceilings. My guest, Rebecca Shambaugh, will talk about how limiting beliefs, assumptions, and behaviors hold women back from career advancement. Rebecca's best seller book, "It's
Not A Glass Ceiling, It's A Sticky Floor", illustrates how one of the major obstacles that holds people back from achieving their career goals and navigating the changing environment lies not only within the traditional organizational barriers but also right below an individual's feet on what we call - the sticky floor. These sticky floors are specific things people think and do that actually limit their chances of being promoted. We will discuss the most common "sticky floors" for women, how to recognize them, and overcome them so that you achieve your career goals.
