Tracee Ellis Ross: 'Don't be afraid to ask for support and ask for help' in your career. (via CNBCMakeIt)
Amy Sussman | Getty Images Entertainment | Getty Images, actor and entrepreneur Tracee Ellis Ross says she's come a long way over the course of her career.
But that doesn't mean you should give in or take what you're offered. Instead, ask other women around you for advice and information. "Don't be afraid to ask for support and ask for help," Ross says. One thing that's made this more difficult is that for many, it's taboo to talk about your salary or share information about your job situation. Instead, many women go it alone. "And when you think you are alone, it is very scary to show up for yourself and to have confidence," Ross says. Especially when it comes to things like negotiating your salary or seeking a promotion.
"And if you go somewhere to ask for help and support and that person doesn't make you feel confident, but makes you feel more wobbly — that wasn't the right person. Try somebody else," she says.
