SynopsisNo one is born with these qualities, but they are the key ingredients for reaching goals, building careers, or taking a blueprint and turning it into a breathtaking skyscraper. In The Trump Card, Ivanka Trump recounts the compelling story of her upbringing as the ultimate Apprentice, the daughter of Donald and Ivana Trump, and shares the life lessons and hardwon insights that have made her a rising star in the business world. From her office in the Trump Organization, where she is a vice president of development and acquisitions and co-founder of The Trump Hotel Collection, to her career as an international model to the launch of her successful jewelry collection, Ivanka offers valuable, practical advice for young women. Whether it's landing that first job, navigating the workplace, or making a lasting impact, Ivanka shows how to - Use uncertainty to your advantage - thrive in any environment. - Step up and get noticed at work - focus and efficiency will open doors. - Create a strong and consistent identity - your name and reputation are your best assets. - Know what you want: get the most out of any negotiation., I was only twenty-four years old, barely a year out of college, when I joined the Trump Organization as the vice president of real estate development and acquisitions. It was an exhilarating moment, one I'd been looking forward to most of my life-almost from the time one of the guys on my father's construction crew showed me how to work the manual levers of a bulldozer when I was about six years old. Now here I was, about to realize my long-held dreams. Be careful what you wish for, right? You just might get it. In my case, my new job came with all sorts of pressures, real and imagined. Some of these pressures were subtle and some decidedly less so. Mostly, I felt this tremendous weight, to prove to anyone who might have been paying attention that I could handle the responsibilities of such a senior position at such a young age.... My father had set things up in such a way that I was free to make my own mistakes, to succeed or fail on my own terms, to make my own way. He wasn't about to hold my hand or walk me through my first difficult paces. That's not his style-and it would not be mine. Book jacket.
