Insights from 9th International Bar Association World Women Lawyers’ Conference in Copenhagen
▪️ Do not let anyone define you
▪️ When offered a job, a promotion, or an opportunity – always say YES (even if you think the offer came only because you are a woman)
▪️ Grasp opportunities. Forget the fear to lose
▪️ When being in the place of your dreams (or, even better – where you were even too shy to dream of being) – know you have deserved it
▪️ Don’t seek to be a CEO at home, if you are or want to be one at work
Some of these thoughts might sound like the lyrics from an upcoming single by Beyonce.
