Book description
Welcome to the world of Mrs Moneypenny, where it's all about who you
know and what you know. Where you can't have it all, but you
have to do it all. And where women wanting to reach the top need to
learn to say 'no'.
The high-flying, uber-connected Financial Times columnist and star
of Channel 4's 'Superscrimpers' is on a mission to help you get ahead
at work.
In this incisive, hilariously frank book, Mrs Moneypenny tells you
everything you need to know about taking control of your career. From
nurturing your personal network and getting noticed, to the art of
outsourcing and understanding numbers, she distils a lifetime's
experience of running businesses and shaping careers into original,
practical advice.
Whether you're just starting out or a rung from the top, whether
you're a store manager or a CEO, let Mrs Moneypenny be your ultimate
mentor - and guide you to success.
