Goal setting, time management and overall self-care for women development professionals as we look at the year ahead
Let’s bring in the New Year together with a focus on self-care. How we manage our time and define success are both important to how we care for ourselves. And building and participating in community are equally as important. Are you feeling like a mentee in the year to come, or do you have wisdom to impart as a mentor?
Sometimes, all we need is a sounding board -- how do we build our “squad” of people in our corner as a support system?
This episode, featuring special guest, Zena Lum, Director of Major Gifts for the Harvard Kennedy School Alumni Relations and Resource Development team. Zena also comes to us with decades of executive search experience, which gives her an excellent and well-rounded perspective on caring for ourselves as professionals.
