A sense of direction

Chapter Chapter 5 in A Woman’s Place is in the Boardroom, 2008, pp 63-71 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Ambition and aspirations gain power and energy when they become more specific. The wish to be successful by itself provides no guidance for action. To be successful at what, or as what? To be successful tomorrow, the day after or in five years’ time? And what do you mean by success? How will you know when you’re successful?
