Kendall Berg doesn’t just coach careers—she rewrites the rules of corporate success. At her Tattered Cover book signing and live Q&A, she breaks down the unwritten rules no one teaches you: what leaders really say behind closed doors, how promotions actually happen, and why your job isn’t responsible for your growth—you are.

With humor, vulnerability, and hard-won experience, Kendall shares the behind-the-scenes moments that shaped her new book Secrets of the Career Game. From mispronouncing “hierarchical” her entire career to being stuck at the same level for 6 years before earning 5 promotions in a row, this episode is equal parts masterclass and memoir.

Whether you're wondering how to communicate your unique value, what’s keeping you stuck, or how to stop being emotionally wrecked by work—this is your wake-up call to treat your career like the business it is.

📚 Secrets of the Career Game is available now on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and everywhere books are sold.

• How do I position myself for career growth without burning out?
