Climbing the Ladder Your Way: Strategic Planning in Action
When Shellye Archambeau's phone rang with a call from Verizon's CEO, it marked another milestone in a journey that seemed almost impossible. Born in 1962 during the civil rights movement, her path from shy Black girl in predominantly white schools to becoming one of Silicon Valley's few African American female CEOs by age forty wasn't about luck - it was strategic planning in action. Success, as Shellye discovered, begins with determining what you want and making deliberate choices to get there. Her story demonstrates how determination, careful planning, and resilience can overcome seemingly insurmountable barriers in both career and life. What makes Shellye's approach different is her rejection of the passive "wait your turn" mentality. Instead, she embraces an unapologetic ambition - not just dreaming about success but methodically engineering it. Her journey offers a masterclass in how to create opportunities rather than waiting for them to appear, proving that with the right strategy, even the most formidable obstacles can become stepping stones.
