Speaker(s): Phanella Mayell Fine and Alice Olins | Editor's note: Apologies for the poor quality audio in this podcast. Women's careers aren't just in the ether, they're on the front pages of newspapers, inside glossy magazines, on the radio, across the internet and they're being discussed on a daily basis in governments all around the world. Sure, if you look at gender-split statistics, the situation is as depressing as it's ever been, but the reality is slowly catching up with the legal framework. But how do you succeed as a woman today, and how do you succeed as you? In this talk, Phanella Mayall Fine and Alice Olins, authors of Step Up: Confidence, Success and your Stellar Career in 10 Minutes A Day will share their tips on how even the busiest of us can achieve success, lead authentically and find balance between work and life.
