Book Reviews & Giveaway: Girl on Top

Girl on Top: Your Guide to Turning Dating Rules into Career Success
Author: Nicole Williams

It’s been a long, long, l-o-n-g time since I was in the dating world. I’m coming up on my 30th wedding anniversary in 2010, so a book that teaches you how to use the rules of dating to climb the ladder of success was going to have to give me the rules…SLOWLY. Because, there was so much that I’d forgotten.

But, what Girl on Top does is really take practical LIFE tips and shows you how they apply to getting ahead in business as well. I mean, even as a married woman I’m dealing with a MAN all the time….so it’s really no different.

Ms. Williams has done a FUN job of translating the things that we already know, and telling us how we can USE them to our advantage. As a professional career coach, she understands exactly what it takes to get ahead. With strategies like

Don’t Waste the Pretty
Play Hard to Get
Keep the Fire Alive
If You’ve Got It, Flaunt It
and more

you’ll be able to put what you’ve already been doing to work for you at work.

In “Put on Some Gloss” she tackles the way you should LOOK. For example…

First date = Interview
Meet the parents = Client presentation

When you look at things from that perspective they’re much easier to prepare for.

The best part of Girl on Top is Ms. William’s snarky, yet ON TARGET writing style. It’s a quick book, that jam packed with good solid advice. It’s all about PLAYING the GAME and Nicole Williams wants to teach you how to WIN. Dotted with boxed tricks of the trade, notes to self, etc. she offers practical, USABLE information for women in the business world.

From how to get the job, to when to move on – this funny guide will help you though just about any situation. A must read for women entering the job market for the first time….or those who just need a reminder of how the game is played.
