Experience
I have two. When I was in graduate school, I didn’t know what I wanted to do. Another woman I went to school with said I should try being a project manager. I didn’t have any direction, so I tried it and it changed my life.
My second is a former manager at Network Equipment Technologies. He has been a big mentor in my life. I love the way he thinks about things. Like me, he is very direct. He has the ability to cut straight through the clutter and come up with a meaningful solution that no one thought of. I find his approach inspiring, and it has shaped how I view the workplace.
