Recommendation

If you have a dream – a realistic one – you can make it happen with planning, hard work and making tough choices that support your goal. It won’t be easy, but as retired CEO Shellye Archambeau writes, you can reach your goals. From a young age in mostly all-white schools, Archambeau determined that her goal was to become a CEO, planned it out and hit her milestones of education, career, marriage and children. She describes her focus and discipline in the face of the prejudice she has encountered as an African-American woman. Archambeau’s memoir will inspire anyone seeking to fulfill their dreams.

Take-Aways

  • You can achieve your goals if you work hard and make choices that support them.
  • Systemic racism exists, but don’t let it hold you back.
  • Define a strategic plan for achieving your goals.
