What can women do to further cement their place in the industry and achieve higher-level positions?
Newberry: Successful women take advantage of and expand their opportunities; they do the research and develop their expertise; they display leadership and advise their peers, clients and customers based upon sound recommendations. They build a reputation based upon performance, commitment and integrity. As they develop within their careers, they need to assert their expertise and negotiate for appropriate and competitive compensation within the marketplace. As they grow they need to train their replacement and offer a mentoring hand to other young women.
