"Talent Development for Girls" is not just about how to develop skills, but on the emotional intelligence needed to do so. This book will take you through 10 unknown secrets to developing talent as a girl.
A visit to any bookshop these days confirms that there are many books on how to develop skills, talents and the like. However, very few of them actually focus on skill development from an emotional intelligence perspective - for example lessons like goal-setting, taking risks, overcoming fear, not giving up...
Daniel Joyce is a well respected figure in the area of developing talent and skills. She has a specific interest in girls and how they can build upon their strengths to reach their full potential. This book is a good starting point for anyone thinking about ways to develop their own or someone else's talents, skills and abilities and enjoy the process of doing so.
To develop talent as a girl, it is important to understand what motivates your career choices and how you want to be respected in the workplace. Furthermore, understanding what makes you good at something (your natural skills) is vital in determining which talents you might wish to develop.
Joyce suggests that successful women stand out from the crowd, that they know their own strengths and have a clear idea of who they want to be. "Developing talent as a girl" is centered around discovering your talents and building on them.
