Lisa Quast, founder of Career Woman, Inc. and an international career development expert for women, has succeeded in business areas that have been traditionally male dominated. Tired of waiting for promotions, Lisa took her career into her own hands and created a career strategic plan to get her where she wanted to go. From the lowest rung of the career ladder to executive positions at multi-billion dollar companies, she realized that achieving success requires more than just luck and hard work - it requires a plan. Her award-winning book, "Your Career, Your Way!" teaches women how to take the process of strategic planning - the same process businesses use to position themselves competitively - and apply it to their own career development. Lisa has been quoted as a career development and workplace issues expert in 200+ articles, in publications from The Wall Street Journal to CBS Money Watch to Time Business. She is the author of 725+ career blogs, had her career development expertise included in 4 books by other authors, and enjoys guest appearances on radio and television shows. Her incredibly successful female-focused career blog (http: //www.careerwomaninc.com and http: //www.forbes.com/sites/lisaquast/) offers tips and insight on everything from how to ask for a raise to recommendations on dealing with a credit-stealing co-worker or boss - and earned the 2012 and 2010 Stevie Awards for Women in Business. Lisa's passion in life is making a difference in the lives of women by helping them achieve their dreams - and she's committed to helping as many women as possible achieve career success!
