How to Thrive in the Workplace: A Resource Guide for Women

You spend a lot of your time at work—hopefully, you enjoy it. As a career woman, finding the perfect job and paving your path to success can be tough. PDH Now is dedicated to helping people from all walks of life find careers they are truly passionate about. With this resource guide, we provide tips and tools for women who are looking to get ahead.

Sketch Out Your Desired Career Path

In order to achieve your goals, you have to first define them.

  • Are you happy with your current job? Recognize the signs that it's time to transition to a new field.
  • If you've decided it's time for a change, take a career quiz to figure out where your real interests lie.
  • Once you know what path you want to pursue, contact a recruiter to start looking.

Leverage Your Network to Get Ahead

Solid business relationships can elevate your success.

  • Regularly attend networking events to get to know people in your field.
  • Find a mentor who can help you up the ladder.
  • Join networking groups specifically for women to further bolster your connections.
  • Use assertive language in the workplace to establish your authority.

Consider Starting Your Own Business

If working for someone else isn't for you, entrepreneurship may be a solid alternative.

  • Research your business idea to see if it's viable.
  • Determine what type of business entity to start and register it with New Mexico.
  • Figure out how much you'll need in startup expenses to get your company off the ground.
  • Look for ways to fund your startup, from loans to crowdfunding.

Climbing your way up the career ladder isn't always easy, especially for a woman. However, it is possible to find a job you truly love. The key to success? Being honest with yourself. Use the resources above to define your goals and chart out your path.
