Career Advice From 5 Extraordinary Women – Women’s History Month

“I think there needs to be more women stepping up and realizing that they proudly should play the game…I hear a lot of women second guessing themselves before they step out on their own. And that is what we have to recognize. We have so much to offer, and half this battle is just us opening our mouths and letting it out.”

This Women’s History Month takes place amid significant changes to women everywhere, from political headwinds threatening progress, to rollbacks in corporate support.

Just ask the 75-80% of respondents in a LinkedIn study that say support for women is a deciding factor for the companies they choose.
