It's true...if I ever boasted for even a nanosecond my mother always said, "Honey, don't brag - it's RUDE." After hearing this motherly mantra for a quarter century, it was an arduous task to reverse the trend. Oddly enough - it was my mother who suggested I read Brag 'so I could get ahead at work'! Simply put, this book changed the way I looked at self promotion in and out of the office. I've taken every word on every page to heart, and I continue to use this book as a reference year after year.

A few of my favorite lessons from Peggy Klaus include: (1)Don't wait until your performance review to let your boss know why you're great at what you do, (2) Don't just sit there and wait for your hard work and results to get you noticed, (3) Remind yourself of 3 things every morning on the way to work: your name (easy enough), your title/what you do and what you are working on right now AND how it makes a difference to your company, (4)Write down the 10 most interesting things that have happened to you and weave them into your "bragologue", (5) Don't just assume people know you b/c you've worked together for years...introduce yourself!, (6)Don't succumb to the peer pressure against 'kissing up to the boss' - Who cares what they think? Put yourself out there! (7) While in an interview, don't let your resume 'speak for you' - tell your own stories and liven them up with your 'brag bites', (8) Above all, back up your 'style with substance' - you could be an excellent self promoter, but if you don't really pack the punch...you'll be all washed up.
