For years the glass ceiling has been the great stumbling block for women when it comes to business success. We’ve gotten so near and yet stayed so far from where many of us should be.

There is still a ways to go before we fully smash the whole of that glass ceiling, but we’re on our way!
There are so many amazing women out there, and they are a welcome addition to the business world. The thing is, there are many areas of business in which women can’t or don’t get the exposure they need. Well, these are some of the awesome female-centric tips more and more women in business are using to smash their own personal glass ceilings!
Make Your Voice Heard
This is something a lot of women out there seem to struggle with, and it is an issue that should be addressed sooner rather than later. Making your voice heard in the workplace, in a positive way, can be so hard for a woman these days. But, if you constantly come up with great ideas, and you are assertive, confident, and don’t let anyone put you in your place you will have a much greater chance of achieving that.
Launch Your Own Start-up
More and more women in business these days are getting out from behind their desks, ditching the 9 to 5’s and going into business for themselves. Launching a start-up is so great in this day and age because it lets women go their own way and do their own thing. Launching a start-up is the perfect way of smashing through that glass ceiling because you are your own boss, and you make your own rules. You are not beholden to what anybody else says or thinks, and you can grow as a woman alongside your business.
Self-Promote
Self-promotion is the key to any successful career, and you can break the glass ceiling by making your presence felt. You’ve got to document your success and keep records of your work and achievements so you can better promote yourself. Joining with other fempreneurs to showcase business excellence is also a great way of self-promoting, and drawing attention to important issues in the company.

Know Your Stuff
It’s hard to ignore a woman who is on point and knows her stuff, and this is something that’s going to help you in the long run. This means getting out there and learning as much as you can.

Whether you own a business, or you’re an employee, knowing your stuff will stand you in good stead.
Use these tips to really take control of things and do what you can to smash through that glass ceiling. There no longer needs to be any limitations on you as a businesswoman – put yourself in the driving seat, and you’ll be good to go!
