My Key Takeaways: 1) Leadership is a Journey, and Women Have a Place at the Table Laurie shared how being one of the few women in leadership motivated her to push for gender equity. Her belief in empowering others is a lesson to girls on how we can lead in the future—whether by making bold decisions now or mentoring others later on. 2) Success is Built on Hard Work and Lifelong Learning Laurie’s story reinforced that education is an ongoing journey. There’s always more to learn.
