Career GPS: Strategies for Women Navigating the New Corporate Landscape: Ella L. J. Edmondson Bell, Linda Villarosa: Books. Bell, a business professor at Dartmouth’s Tuck business school, looks back over her own journey from a working-class family in the Bronx to offer basic advice on how women of whatever background can advance themselves in the business world. Her book is aimed at women in various stages of their careers: just starting off, in midcareer, returning after raising children, or recovering from job loss. She begins by advising women to develop self-knowledge, firmly understand what they want from their careers, realize what they have to offer, and recognize the importance of bringing the total self into the job rather than compartmentalizing their work and personal lives. She goes on to offer advice on developing a career strategy: finding mentors and recruiters, business and social networking, maintaining a global perspective and techno-savviness, and forging a balance between work and family life. Bell intersperses her advice with vignettes of her experiences as a business consultant and professor. Engaging and sound advice for women looking to advance their careers in business. --Vanessa Bush
