Summary of Carla A. Harris's Expect to Win

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The person you are at work is your competitive advantage. You can be free to learn new concepts, be creative, and take risks, which helps you become more valuable to the company. When you are not being who you really are, you will begin to appear uncomfortable to others. #2 A lack of confidence can also hurt you internally. When you are confident in who you are, it helps you build trust in relationships with the people you work with. If you are constantly questioning your abilities in the workplace, your colleagues will notice and try to make you doubt yourself. #3 To be yourself in a work environment, you must first understand what your competitive strengths are and concentrate on improving your weaknesses. You must always be prepared to explain why you deserve a promotion or a raise, or simply why you are so good at what you do. #4 Those who are comfortable in their own skin and who are bringing their real selves to work are the same people who can have an honest dialogue with their bosses, ask for the promotion, or the new assignment, and who are quick to point out when something is impeding their success.
