Thank you Christine and the whole team at for having on your "A Voice for Women | A Virtual Panel for Women in Business," event today.
The topics covered were:
🫣 Imposter Syndrome
💰 How to Negotiate
⛰ Turning Obstacles into Opportunities
Highlights on imposter syndrome:
⭐️ There's no such thing as perfection and that's okay.
⭐️ Self-reflection can lead to self-actualization.
⭐️ Believe in your experience, skills, and capabilities, because they matter and will always be a welcome addition to any company or team.
Highlights on how to negotiate:
⭐️ You need to understand what your number is (the salary you ultimately want to make).
⭐️ What are the numbers for the company (what is their salary range and other key offerings).
⭐️ For a raise or promotion, you need to know what the company offers as a standard, where they're at as a company, and what do market conditions look like.
Highlights on turning obstacles into opportunities:
⭐️ Robyn said, "The one point I mentioned is the thing that women are afflicted with the most; being too bold, too opinionated, strong-willed, etc and why it's incredibly important to embrace your authenticity and use it to your advantage, gracefully and respectfully. Especially in places where it might not be accepted, because truthfully, that's where it's needed the most."
