Real Empathy Is Sometimes Not Insisting That

Presenting Leadership As A List Of Carefully Defined Qualities (like Strategic, Analytical, And Performance-ori Ented) No Longer Holds. Instead, True Leadership Stems From Individuality That Is Honestly And Sometimes Imperfectly Expressed.... Leaders Should Strive For Authenticity Over Perfection.

I Tell People In Their Careers, 'look For Growth. Look For The Teams That Are Growing Quickly. Look For The Companies That Are Doing Well. Look For A Place Where You Feel That You Can Have A Lot Of Impact.'

There Is No Straight Path From Your Seat Today To Where You Are Going. Don't Try To Draw That Line. You Will Not Just Get It Wrong, You'll Miss Big Opportunities. And I Mean Big-like The Internet. Careers Are Not Ladders, Those Days Are Long Gone, But Jungle Gyms. Don't Just Move Up And Down, Don't Just Look Up, Look Backwards, Sideways Around Corners. Your Career And Your Life Will Have Starts And Stops And Zigs And Zags. Don't Stress Out About The White Space-the Path You Can't Draw- Because There In Lies Both The Surprises And The Opportunities.

Without Fear, Women Can Pursue Professional Success And Personal Fulfillment-and Freely Choose One, Or The Other, Or Both.

Women Need To Shift Form Thinking "i'm Not Ready To Do That" To Thinking "i Want To Do That- And I'll Learn By Doing It.
