Women in Leadership Discover It’s Good to Talk!

It’s Good to Talk!  That was my message to the audience in Berlin a few weeks ago.

At the end of last month, I had the honour of being invited to speak at the Women in Leadership Global Summit.  The event brought together senior women from a wide range of organisations to explore opportunities for how they could develop themselves and manage their careers.

I had been asked to run a session called “It’s Good to Talk! Developing Women Leaders Through Career Conversations.

 

Video Clips from It’s Good to Talk!
