Lift as I Climb: An Immigrant Girl's Journey Through Corporate America is an instructive biography about a woman who rose to the top through a winning combination of inclusion and purpose. As a new American, Jackie Glenn developed a powerful currency in a set of ten self-defined "gems"-foundations of character that she invested with impressive returns. Working her way from nanny to executive, she found that lifting others as she climbed the corporate ladder became a way of life. With each promotion and increase in global responsibility, she never forgot an earlier vow to hear those whose voices were not as strong as her own. Intentionally and continuously, she made time to understand who needed a lift and how to provide it. Jackie Glenn's own story is artfully combined with the perspectives of other prominent immigrants explaining how these gems brought them success. This is a book for citizens of all nations who want a deeper understanding of qualities that never go out of style: authenticity, self-awareness, boldness, responsibility, faith, empathy, flexibility, integrity, resilience, and trustworthiness. Applicable to all stages of personal and professional journeys, Lift as I Climb will give you an engaging compass to chart your future and take pride in your progress.
