I’ve learned so much from the Women in Leadership event at Google on August 16.
The executive leader panel included: Leslie Trigg from Outset Medical; Kerry Barret from Accretive Solutions; Lynn Christensen from Workday; and Ki Kuehn from Google.
These influential and thriving women leaders shared lively discussion and awesome insights about how to lead and thrive as women advance in their careers and in life.
Here are my awesome takeaways:
Focus on the vital fews — don’t try to address everything
Find talents with passions — you cannot force passion into people
Be bold and take risks — don’t be afraid to take a role that you think you may not have all the qualifications for
Leadership is about taking care of your employees — Lead by focusing not just on yourself, but also the people who work for you
Be optimistic — work and life will have their struggles, be positive and get back up when you fall down
Be kind to yourself — mistakes and things happen in life often times, don’t beat yourself up on them
Don’t worry about politics, just get things done and work together as teams
Thank you Leslie, Kerry, Lynn and Ki for your wisdom!
