"Build Your Table" is a compelling blend of memoir and strategic career guide, tailored for those navigating corporate life from the margins—especially women, immigrants, and professionals of colour. Drawing from her journey as a Black woman, introvert, and immigrant climbing the corporate ladder, Beverly Vanterpool shares the unspoken truths of advancing in systems not built with you in mind. From building networks to making bold career moves, this book helps you thrive where you are—and decide when it’s time to pivot and choose more.
Beverly's personal journey from a shy teenager on a small Caribbean island to a confident professional in global multinational companies is both inspiring and instructive. The book captures key lessons from navigating spaces not built for women, people of colour, immigrants, or anyone identifying as "other". It weaves historical context and key data points to highlight the systemic challenges faced by underrepresented groups.
The key message is about being intentional, whether leaning into organisational dynamics or creating your own unique path. Beverly emphasises the importance of creating platforms and communities that support growth and success. The book also discusses the significance of mentorship and sponsorship in advancing one's career, along with exploring the concept of a portfolio career.
Throughout the book, Beverly highlights the importance of role models and shares stories of inspiration. She provides practical exercises and suggestions for readers to reflect on their career paths, develop their skills, and build their networks. "Build Your Table" is a timely and empowering book that offers practical strategies for navigating the complexities of the modern workplace and achieving career success on one's own terms.
