#2 DISRUPT Leadership Tip from Evelyn Dilsaver (U.S. FWN100™ '11), former President and CEO of Charles Schwab Investments
"Luck is where competence and timing meet. A few people are truly lucky in life. But I believe that many of us created our own luck by applying our knowledge, being observant to opportunities and willing to take a risk when we saw that opportunity."
ASK A FILIPINA: #1 DISRUPT Leadership Tip from White House Executive Chef Cris Comerford, Global FWN100 '07
Honoring what makes us unique and expressing that in all we do makes them all the more fulfilling and also allow us to stand out. Our authenticity has the power to draw others and share the satisfaction of celebrating a blend of our heritage, personality, style and talent reflected in our identities.
ASK A FILIPINA: Leadership Tip from Michele Bumgarner, Professional Race Car Driver (Global FWN100™ '13)
As for working in a man’s world, allow femininity to be an asset... Women build consensus. We pull together to solve problems and on a race team, that is a helpful skill. Racing is a team sport, but the driver is the team leader. So it is important to be firm, but by doing so with a smile, it makes it hard for people to tell you, “No.” -Michele Bumgarner, Professional Race Car Driver, Global FWN100™ '13
