Topic: The New Leadership Paradigm
The marketplace is changing and so are the dynamics of what it means to be a woman leader in the world today. This “Leader Shift” will require not only tech savvy skills but soft skills as well to create long-term sustainable results. The good news is that women already possess these innate skills. We wrote the book on building relationships. No more hanging back and settling for mediocrity.
In this thought-provoking presentation, Cookie challenges you to tap into your wisdom and skills, unleash your potential, stay at the top of your game and be the leader you were born to be.
