Michele Thornton urges women to get strategic—actually, she calls it STRATECHIC. She believes women are innate strategists that use most of their time and focus taking care of others. Thornton encourages women to use a portion of that energy towards developing a personal life plan. With her proven 10-step framework, Thornton helps every woman be more Stratechic and reclaim the power they naturally possess. Stratechic is a must read for every woman striving to live her best life. From the first page to the last, readers aren’t simply told what to do, they are given useful tools on why and how to accomplish each goal. Throughout the book, Michele reminds the reader, “If you don’t set expectations, nothing will happen.”
This book is a really quick read. I actually read it during my lunch hour. It has activities to complete; however I did not complete them. I believe this book is more appropriate for women trying to advance in their career and have had absolutely no guidance. She covers the traditional “get a mentor, sponsor, elevator pitch, network, etc.” if you are in a good company that invests in its employees, these are things that are common knowledge, otherwise you’d find value here.
