Session: Skills You Need to Succeed in the Age of Ideas and Action
Young women lack mentors. They are passionate and they want to create a career and a life they love but they don’t know how to do it. More importantly, there is no one to guide them over the invisible barriers so they can set themselves up for success.Our society raises girls to be a certain way, to fit a certain role and there are many soft skills that are never taught. Many basic ideas were never discussed.
If women need to excel in the Age of Ideas they need to know how and when to take action. They need to know the skills to nurture and how to negotiate the course to success.
Key Takeaways
- Learn skills necessary to take the flight
- The importance of having a mentor
- Learning from failures and hurdles you may face
- Identifying opportunities and converting them to your benefit.
