"Many women directors tell me it hasnt been easy but they are enjoying it. And in many instances, men have been very encouraging - which is a good sign"

"What also helped was the trusted network of resources – the experts and advisors – I could access, who guided and helped me navigate the situation. They took my calls and they stepped in when we needed them"

"We need to push the limits of achievement and better our performance all the time. I think we should be ‘engaged’ in the profession of our choice rather than just ‘work hard’ in our chosen work area. We need to literally set ourselves on fire with our objectives"

"We need to be passionate and driven to achieve any goal we choose"

"During my stint in the corporate world, I have always felt men are better than women at marketing themselves. Thats why women need that little extra support"

"As a professional, I have followed my passions even outside my core area of work"
