How do you excel when the odds are overwhelmingly stacked against you? Blanca De La Rosa came to the United States as an immigrant, born in a small town in the Dominican Republic, and raised in New York City’s public housing development. Against all odds, she broke mental, physical and cultural barriers to establish a flourishing career in international business management, rising through the ranks of Mobil/ExxonMobil Oil Corporation. With no one to turn to for advice or guidance, De La Rosa relied on trial-and-error methods to find success. Now, after a successful forty-one-year career, she seeks to pass on the wisdom she has learned with A Holistic Approach to Your Career: Discover the Top 10 Action Items Required to Achieve a Successful Career. An empowering self-help book for both new employees and seasoned professionals, the book explores how to navigate the challenges of the corporate world to claim the future you want.
“Over my professional career, I learned that there are certain attributes, skills, and action steps which are essential to career success and better positioning yourself for that next career move,” says De La Rosa. Through a combination of personal stories, insightful reflections, and practical advice, De La Rosa covers an expansive range of topics including managing conflict, developing a career roadmap, mentorship, networking, decision-making, and more. A true visionary leader, De La Rosa’s devotion to helping others build a successful, rewarding career is clear, with an ultimate goal to challenge and change the lives of many. “The overarching message of this book is to inspire and motivate readers to forge ahead, no matter what trials and tribulations they encounter along the road to success.”
From the outset, it’s clear that A Holistic Approach to Your Career is a tool designed not only to influence how you conduct yourself in your career, but to reconstruct how you understand your place in the professional world altogether. The book encourages readers to take a big picture approach in how they forecast, plan and move through their careers, and to become more proactive in overcoming failures, all while building confidence in themselves and their ability to claim the future they want. Therein lies the book’s most valuable quality; it places as much emphasis on equipping readers with the right mindset to understand and manage all the moving parts of their professional life holistically as it does on any single piece of practical advice. Upon a rich foundation of personal experience, De La Rosa is clear about the differences between skills, attributes, and action steps, and how they relate to each other — creating a framework for readers that is easy to remember and just as easy to put into practice. Overall, the holistic approach on which the book is founded fills the many gaps in what we’re taught about building a career during our formal education.
A Holistic Approach to Your Career offers a new approach to climbing the corporate ladder, combining practical, common-sense advice with inner wisdom and spirituality to increase the chances of success in the workplace.
