Women are working hard to beat down the corporate glass ceiling. While we at Atlas Promotions are thrilled with their progress, we know they still have quite a way to go. To help them rise through the ranks and stand alongside their male counterparts, we recommend a few strategies:

• Create Your Brand: Identify the values that are most meaningful to you, and develop a vivid image of success. What is your mission? Once you get these basics down, you can decide how you’d like to live them on a daily basis. Your actions and overall presentation form your personal brand, by which other professionals will know you. At Atlas Promotions, we suggest that you incorporate qualities like integrity and confidence into your persona.

• Use Your Voice: Many women are socialized to be relatively meek, which means they aren’t often vocal about their needs and wants. Obviously, this trend must change in order for women professionals to continue upward. Those on our Atlas Promotions team are encouraged to negotiate, ask for promotions, and otherwise flex their competitive muscles.

• Get Support: Hardly anyone – male or female – achieves success on their own. Rally as many supportive individuals around you as possible, because you’ll need their advice and encouragement as you overcome obstacles along your journey. Friends, family members, colleagues, and mentors all have valuable insights to share.

With these strategies and more, there are no limits to what women can accomplish!
