Feb 23 was a pivotal moment – Women of the World was launched with an extraordinary panel and an engaged audience. To quote an attendee “we had a great opportunity in challenging times to tap into resources we might otherwise overlook.” I am always inspired by the power of women who believe in innovating and creating changes in the business culture. They believe in coalitions and collaboration, realizing that is the pathway towards successful strategies for business development. The next panel “Tactics to Triumph through Tough Times” takes us down a road to walk in the current unchartered territory, providing the tools and knowledge for empowerment and success.
