About the book
You’re good at your job. You work hard, deliver results, and maintain high standards. Yet, despite your dedication, career advancement feels increasingly out of reach. Traditional advice, “let your work speak for itself” or “learn to play the game,” leaves you feeling stuck between burnout and sell out.
May Busch, former COO of Morgan Stanley Europe, knows this struggle intimately. Through her own 24-year journey from entry-level analyst to C-suite executive, she discovered a better way forward.
Drawing from her experience and work coaching hundreds of ambitious professionals, May reveals the hidden capabilities that senior decision-makers look for when determining who advances and who plateaus.
This transformative guide shows you how to:
- Navigate office politics while staying true to your values
- Build strategic relationships without compromising your integrity
- Develop the presence and confidence to command attention
- Take ownership of your career progression at every stage
Whether you’re feeling overlooked for promotion, struggling with workplace dynamics, or simply ready to accelerate your career trajectory, this book provides the framework to advance on your own terms. Stop grinding harder – start working strategically.
