She said her advice to women looking to move into leadership roles was to embrace their authenticity and not shy away from their strengths.
“As women, we bring a different set of skills—especially in empathy, communication, and relationship-building. These strengths are vital in leadership; particularly in a people-centric fields,” she said.
“Don’t be afraid to speak up, to take risks, and to seek out mentors and relationships who can help you navigate the challenges. Support one another – especially other women – and never underestimate the power of a strong network.”
