Beginning as a rare female electrical engineer and daughter of a General Motors die maker, Barra spent more than thirty years building her career before becoming the first woman to ever lead a global automaker. With $155 billion in sales and 200,000 employees, GM is widely considered to be a proxy for the U.S. economy, making Barra's position arguably the most important corporate role a woman has ever held. This book describes the personal character, choices, and leadership style that enabled her to break through the glass ceiling. When 52- year-old Mary Barra was named CEO of General Motors in 2013, only people outside of the company were surprised. She had done everything from working on the factory floor to overseeing manufacturing, from improving union relations to paring down bureaucracy, and from running human resources to helping drag the company back from its 2009 bankruptcy. This book details each step of her career, and the lessons she learned along the way. Learn how Mary Barra's willingness to take on diverse assignments helped steer her career trajectory Examine the fine details of Barra's management style and her ability to relate to colleagues Discover the qualities and experiences Barra had that drove her to lead this male-dominated profession Study the valuable lessons Barra learned at each stage in her professional life, and why they stuck with her throughout her journey to the top Barra is most certainly a pioneer for women in business, but she's also a living lesson as to how far the right outlook, skills, and drive can take you in your career. Road to Power explores the talent and the mindset that got her all the way to the top"--|cProvided by publisher. 588 0 Print version record and CIP data provided by publisher. 590 O'Reilly|bO'Reilly Online Learning: Academic/Public Library Edition 600 10 Barra, Mary. 600 17 Barra, Mary|2fast 610 20 General Motors Corporation. 610 27 General Motors Corporation|2fast 650 0 Automobile industry and trade|zUnited States|vBiography. 650 0 Women executives|vBiography. 650 0 Businesswomen|vBiography. 650 6 Automobiles|xIndustrie et commerce|zÉtats-Unis |vBiographies. 650 7 Automobile industry and trade|2fast 650 7 Businesswomen|2fast 650 7 Women executives|2fast 651 7 United States|2fast 655 7 collective biographies.|2aat 655 7 Biographies|2fast 655 7 Biographies.|2lcgft 655 7 Biographies.|2rvmgf 776 08 |iPrint version:|aColby, Laura.|tRoad to power.|dHoboken, New Jersey : John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2015|z9781118972632 |w(DLC) 2014047584 856 40 |uhttps://ezproxy.naperville-lib.org/login?url=https:// learning.oreilly.com/library/view/~/9781118972632/?ar |zAvailable on O'Reilly for Public Libraries 938 Internet Archive|bINAR|nroadtopowerhowgm0000colb 938 Books 24x7|bB247|nbkb00080707 938 ProQuest Ebook Central|bEBLB|nEBL4040261 938 ebrary|bEBRY|nebr11022765 938 EBSCOhost|bEBSC|n957007 938 ProQuest MyiLibrary Digital eBook Collection|bIDEB |ncis29652585 938 YBP Library Services|bYANK|n12673774 938 YBP Library Services|bYANK|n12298808 938 Askews and Holts Library Services|bASKH|nAH27099364 994 92|bJFN
