One Bold Move a Day: Meaningful Actions Women Can Take to Fulfill Their Leadership and Career Potential Hardcover – November 8, 2022
Purchase options and add-ons
An essential roadmap to help you feel more confident, clear, and intentional in your goals―at every stage of your career and life
Early in her career, Shanna Hocking tried to do everything “right”: She spoke up in meetings, supported colleagues' strategies, and raised her hand for new projects. Though her enthusiasm helped her get ahead in some ways, pushback from others nearly derailed her: Who did she think she was? She shouldn't be so "out there." She should "take it down a bit."
What happened next is a situation all too many professional women will recognize: Shanna began to internalize the comments, second-guessing herself and holding herself back to make others comfortable. It took a long time―years, in fact―before she was able to see what she was doing and regain the power of being her best self.
In One Bold Move a Day, Shanna reveals the transformative mindsets that helped her regain that power, and offers a practical, hands-on roadmap to achieving your own goals with intention and joy. More than just a career guide, One Bold Move a Day shows you how a single, measurable act each day will help you fulfill your potential, both personally and professionally.
Shanna offers hard-won advice and insights gleaned from 20 years as a successful manager leading large teams in billion-dollar non-profit organizations and a leadership consultant to universities and companies, in chapters that include:
- Bold Mindset Shifts

Learning to make decisions, take action, and move forward step by step have completely changed how I experience my work and life. I’m not waiting, I’m not retrofitting, I’m not getting paralyzed with analysis. I’m taking action and getting new information through my choices. One bold move a day.
Shanna really lives it - and she offers us practical, meaningful advice in her book, sometimes with bite-sized chunks and sometimes bigger leaps of faith, to build the life and career we want. No imposters here. Truth, empathy, and encouragement.
Thank you Shanna! 🎁
