“Companies benefit from bold, authentic, diverse leadership. Remember Who You Are gives sound advice to our next generation of female talent.” —Jim Goodnight, SAS CEO
 
It’s the elusive trifecta every working woman desperately seeks. Do you find yourself trying to be everything to everyone? Do you run yourself ragged but still feel something is missing? The struggle is real and all too common.
 
Paula Brown Stafford and Lisa T. Grimes are two award-winning, C-suite executives who together have accumulated 60 plus years of work experience at the highest levels, 60 years of marriage, and raised four successful children. Collectively, they have managed more than 25,000 employees globally. Now, in a transparent and relatable way, they share personal experiences, insights and encouragement—what they wish they’d known 30 years ago—to women looking for career advancement and quality of life and men who want to improve their working relationships with women. Each chapter includes a personal letter from a successful female executive to her younger self that offers wise counsel for aspiring professional women.
 
“Remember Who You Are will help you take a deep breath and advance in ways allowing you to live fully, love deeply and leave a legacy.” —Dan Miller, New York Times–bestselling author of 48 Days to the Work You Love
 
“No matter where a woman is on her life’s journey and what professional goals she is pursuing, Remember Who You Are can motivate and guide in good times and through challenging moments.” —Carol L. Folt, Chancellor, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

    Paula Brown Stafford and Lisa Grimes are former business competitors who decided to become colleagues, business partners and friends instead. Remember Who You Are is a powerful set of interwoven stories, written from the generous hearts of these two exceptional and successful women. As their stories unfold, the authors reveal the importance of identifying, defining and developing the qualities and character in ourselves that we want others to see and know, and about the critical need to focus on the quality of our relationships with everyone in our lives. Although the book is written from the perspective of women in business, there are valuable lessons for any person at any stage of career and life. I highly recommend this book to anyone seeking to take their career to the next level, or anyone wanting experience-based advice on balancing work and life, keeping their integrity and improving their business relationships.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A spectacular guide to realistically achieving success both internally and externally
    Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2018
    Verified Purchase
    As a young business professional (also in the Pharma industry), I remember being super excited to hear that PBS and Lisa Grimes had collaborated to write this book, but I had no idea how truly enlightening their overall message would be. I'm at a point in my career where achieving success, balance and fulfillment are crucial both professionally and personally. I really appreciated the individual letters from multiple accomplished leaders, expressing words of wisdom and motivation for their younger selves.Their insights provide a very clear visual as to why its extremely important to not get carried away with internal and external expectations and to simply "Remember Who You Are."

    This is a MUST-READ for the young and tenured professional, both women and men...those who are searching for inspiration and guidance in all stages of life/career. Thank you Paula and Lisa for expressing such a powerful memorandum.

    All the women at my company are reading and enjoying Remeber Who You Are. We are taking turns writing and reading our own "Letters to our Younger Self" and just finished reading chaper 5, Calendar Jam. The process of reading this book together has helped us grow as individuals, but it has also helped us become stronger as a group. We had an opportunity to meet Paula and Lisa virtually and both of them were gracious and helpful (just like they are in the book). I highly reccomend this book to people of all ages. Thanks Paula and Lisa for giving so much of yourselves through the creation of this book and for supporting women everywhere!

Whether in business or life, these lessons are rich and powerful.The book is well written and is easy to relate to whether you are a man or a woman. Lisa and Paula share their experiences and lessons learned from hard knocks, successes and failures and as such they are completely credible. Their stories are told as if you are there with them when the events occur. I look forward to reading this again so that the lessons are engrained in me.

    I have been privileged to have Paula and Lisa speak at two events for my ministry, Women with Purpose. How thankful I am that the wisdom they shared at those events is now readily at my fingertips in this book along with so much more! They model "Authentic Leadership" by sharing not just practical advice but also from their own stories with honesty and humility. I appreciate that it is clearly written and to the point in a way that's compelling and hard to put down. I know I will be buying copies to give to women in my life, especially ones who are just starting in their careers.

    As a biopharmaceutical executive I found this book to be most helpful . Balancing a demanding career and family responsibilities is a challenge for both husbands and wives in a fast paced business environment. As a married father of 3 children the book was very enlightening to see this perspective from a female executives viewpoint. Excellent tips on staying true to your mission in both career and family. Definite read for both men and women as they move forward in their careers with keeping the priorities of family responsibilities at the top of their list along with a balance towards their careers.

    This book has useful advice and examples that can be helpful wherever you are along life’s journey. Lisa & Paula not only write about their successes, but include times of adversity and growth experiences, with input from other corporate leaders. Even though I’m retired I enjoyed reading it, and see it as a valuable resource for leaders in all areas, e.g., parent, teacher, pastor, military, supervisor, coach – even if not wanting to climb a corporate ladder.

However, it is a must read for all young women first starting out in their professional careers.
