Wilton, Conn. (PRWEB) March 24, 2015 -- Today, Bonnie Marcus, M.Ed., releases “The Politics of Promotion,” which is the first-ever book to provide women the steps to become savvy and succeed in workplace politics without compromising their integrity or feminine traits. In “The Politics of Promotion,” Marcus reveals how women can break into the power circles and influence decisions that affect their careers.

There isn’t any topic in the workplace that brings up more frustration for women than office politics. But, the avoidance of workplace dynamics can put them in a very vulnerable position."

Marcus, an award-winning entrepreneur, dynamic thought leader on women in the workplace and president of Women’s Success Coaching, an executive coaching firm that specializes in helping women navigate the realities of the workplace and advance their careers, developed the framework she shares in “The Politics of Promotion” based on her own business experience in her 20+ years in sales and management.

“There isn’t any topic in the workplace that brings up more frustration for women than office politics. But, the avoidance of workplace dynamics can put them in a very vulnerable position,” said Marcus, who is a contributing writer for Forbes and Business Insider and a sought-after national and international speaker on women in the workplace. “'The Politics of Promotion' shows women how to navigate office politics successfully, build and nurture key relationships, get comfortable with self-promotion, avoid potentially disastrous blindsides and ultimately, advance their careers.”

Available now on Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble.com and 800CEOREAD, "The Politics of Promotion" reveals how professional women can:
-Identify their value proposition.
-Effectively and authentically promote themselves without backlash.
-Build relationships of influence and position themselves with key stakeholders.
-Network with power and intent, especially with those who have power over their advancement.
-Find allies, champions, sponsors to move their career forward.

Advanced praise for “The Politics of Promotion” includes the following.    

-Author of Nice Girls Don’t Get the Corner Office Lois P. Frankel, Ph.D., says, "If you’re one of those nice girls who thinks politics is a four-letter word, think again. From promotions to perks to plum assignments, savvy women know the path to success is paved by politics. This book will help you to make workplace politics an integral part of your skill set without feeling as if you’ve compromised your integrity.”

-President of Tetra Tech AMT Susan B. Chodakewitz says, "This book reframes the concept of office politics. Bonnie clearly and practically explains how the work environment must be understood for anyone hoping to advance their careers. Through research, case studies, and a variety of powerful vignettes, she offers insights for all individuals – women and men – who seek to be more successful, eliminate roadblocks, and deliver for themselves, their teams, and their organizations."

“The Politics of Promotion,” published by Wiley, includes eight chapters with titles such as The Mirror: Your Tool for Savvy Self Promotion, The Pass Go and Collect $200 Card: Strategic Networking and the GPS: Executive Coaching.
