A Practical Workbook for Women Navigating the Identity Shift That Comes with Stepping Up
You've worked hard. You deliver great work. You care about what you do. So why do the doubts still creep in when you start thinking about what’s next?
Whether you're aiming for a promotion, thinking about changing careers or simply feeling stuck, career progression isn't just about working harder.
It's about getting clear on who you are becoming, understanding what's holding you back and taking intentional action – all while staying true to who you really are.
Created by executive and career coach Claudia Crawley, who has been helping women leaders for over 16 years, the From Middle Manager to Senior Leader workbook is here to help you do just that.
What you’ll gain
This printable PDF workbook is designed to help women in middle management step out of autopilot and move towards senior leadership in a way that feels authentic, fulfilling and aligned with your identity.
In it, you’ll find five sections with reflective exercises to help you move through five of the most common progress blockers with your values and sanity fully intact.
You don’t need hours to complete it – 15 minutes and a pen are a great place to start.
You’ll reflect, focus and tackle the uncomfortable stuff – all in the name of leaving behind what no longer serves you, and expanding into a bigger version of yourself.
Inside the workbook, you'll discover:
A simple framework for building strategic influence and visibility
Confidence-building prompts to challenge self-doubt and imposter syndrome
How to spot one of your inner critics (Saboteurs) – and challenge it with truth
Exercises to define your strengths, values and non-negotiables
Space to map out the leader you’re becoming with clarity and conviction
Reflection pages to help you define your next steps, stay accountable and celebrate progress
“Claudia helped me trust my expertise, silence my saboteurs, and finally I feel deserving of the leader I already am."
— Ms AD, social work team manager, South London
By the end, you'll have:
✔ A clearer vision of the leader you’re becoming and how to get there
✔ Improved knowledge of what’s holding you back
✔ Greater confidence in your strengths and values
✔ Clear steps you can take to improve your visibility in ways that feel authentic
✔ A three-step action plan you feel motivated to pursue straight away
✔ The momentum to make your next move with purpose
Because the leader you’re becoming is already inside you – and it’s time to give her the space she needs to step up.
You deserve to feel confident asking for the promotion, applying for the role, negotiating your salary or taking the leap into something new.
It all starts with one small step.
““The result: I got the promotion. And then the next one. And then the next one!”
— Ms EF, former sales operations manager”
