Transcript of Career Advice from Powerful Women
In any crisis, there’s an opportunity. It’s what you
do with it. When we think about crisis, we think
about the bad stuff. But a comeback? Amazing.
-Judy Smith, crisis manager (and the inspiration behind “Scandal”)
DO SOMETHING YOU’RE PASSIONATE ABOUT. LIFE’S TOO SHORT. -Mary Barra, General Motors CEO
Constructive tension is
good. If we get everybody’s
views on the table, we’ll
have a much better decision.���
-Mary Barra���
THERE ARE A LOT OF PATHS TO SUCCESS, THERE’S NOT JUST ONE.
-Susan Coelius Keplinger, Triggit co-founder
I ask myself everyday: Did I make decisions
and do things only I could do? If other people can make them, it’s not the best use of your time. –Ginni Rometty
It’s not enough to talk about women and
girls. We have to fund things. If you don’t put money behind it, we can’t create change.
–Melinda Gates
The thing people want most is your focus and attention. You destroy that when you think you’re multitasking, because you’re not accomplishing either. –Wendy Clark, Coca Cola
ALL OF US CAN IMPROVE.
EVEN IF WE’RE AT THE TOP OF
OUR GAME, WE CAN STILL GET BETTER. –MARY BARRA
