The Confidence Code: Unlocking Women's Potential in the Workplace

Welcome to Unscripted Pivots. Today is the final installment of my four-part series exploring the four powerful C's every woman should cultivate. And I'm talking all about confidence - the backbone of successful pivots.

Together we'll explore seven scenarios where confidence challenges might arise and how the other three C's we've been discussing - courage, curiosity, and connection - can help us develop, strengthen, and cultivate confidence.
