My Author Journey: In 2017 I gave a keynote speech on International Women's Day, taking lessons from my career and creating abstract metaphors to make it engaging and memorable. The session got great feedback and the concept turned into a development session. When the pandemic created turbulence in so many people's work worlds, I decided to put my stories and advice into writing. Book two was inspired by a personal dilemma eight years ago, (shared in detail in the book) I started looking differently at how we make decisions, why so many fail, and what it takes to make trust travel.
I hope they provide inspiration.
