Recommendation
Learn how to sell from a Christie’s auctioneer who’s raised half a billion dollars at charity benefit auctions. Lydia Fenet urges women to prepare, show up and work hard, negotiate fearlessly for their compensation and build broad, diverse networks to sustain them personally and professionally. Fenet emphasizes the importance of resilience and integrity as she outlines ways to make the connections that lead to success (and name drops quite a few of them). She advocates rigorous time management, a can-do attitude, and a commitment to pursuing and achieving milestones along a “road map” of lifelong goals.
