How to Master the 10 Lessons of Fairy Tales to Transform Your Work Life.

Author: Cary J. Broussard with Anita Bell, a freelance writer.

A must-read for the career-minded woman facing workplace challenges.

Each chapter brings to light the characters of each fairy tale while putting forth reality in our real career lives. Read and see which character you portray as some or all of us have a fairy tale story in the workplace. The book emphasizes in the subliminal messages hidden in every fairy tale from Cinderella to Beauty and the Beast

See how each tale is relevant to today’s workplace:

  • A modern Snow White can thwart an evil queen or backstabbing competitor by working hard to win allies
  • A Gretel thrust into the woods with scarcely a few weeks’ severance pay can find her way to a better job
  • A Rapunzel stuck in a tower or low-paying job can escape and make her voice heard
  • A Beast of a project can turn into a Princely prize when an ambitious Beauty (on the inside), sees the potential in an underappreciated idea … and has faith in her choices.

Dare to take chances and confront your adversaries intelligently by mastering the ten lessons taught in this book. You don’t have to become a CEO but you can think, talk, and act like one.
