The female advantage (interview)
I was recently interviewed by Olga Melniciuc, a National Consultant on Women Economic Empowerment at UN Women Moldova.

If you’re looking for some ideas to boost your professional credibility and influence, here’s a re-play of the live talk. Leveraging your unique feminine power definitely pays off!
