 Now, more than ever, in this globally-minded world, international experience is critical. Working abroad can fast-track your career, broaden your professional capabilities, increase your pay and expand your personal horizons. Contrary to assumptions in many organizations, women usually excel abroad.

Get Ahead by Going Abroad is the go-to resource that reveals how women, single or married, can leverage this trend to showcase their skills and move up quickly on their own terms. Written by two women who did so with huge success, the book is packed with candid, instructive anecdotes and examples from their own and others’ experiences, and step-by-step guidance for securing and succeeding in an international position. Yeatman and Berdan show how women at every level can benefit from an overseas posting: young professionals seeking to break out from the pack, mid-career women interested in new challenges with increased responsibility, or senior executives in pursuit of positions in executive management.

Stacie Nevadomski Berdan is an international careers expert and the award-winning author of Get Ahead By Going Abroad.  Her most recent book, GO GLOBAL! Launching an International Career Here or Abroad, is a resource for recent graduates, young professionals and students – high school, undergrad and graduate – campus counselors, professors and parents who want to know more about the ins and outs of pursuing an international career, whether it’s here or abroad. Stacie spends her time speaking on campuses, advising companies, writing about globalization and, of course, traveling. She provides practical, relevant advice to succeed in today’s global economy.
