Several countries* will celebrate Mother’s Day this week (and others already have this year). We couldn’t help but think about the influence of not only our mothers, but other women who play powerful roles in our lives, in our development. We know from talking with women all over the world that often there is an inspirational or hard-working woman who inspired their success.
The women who have positively impacted us deserve a moment of honor and acknowledgement. We want to hear about your mom or women-influencers in your life and celebrate them with you!
Join us this week in celebrating the women in your life who have made you who you are today, both personally and professionally.
What did she teach you, about yourself or about work?
What did she show you or model to you?
How did she lead by example?
How did she influence where you are today, professionally and personally?
In a quick comment below, share the name of a woman who made an impact in your professional path, and why. You can tweet to us, or put it on our Facebook page, too.
At the end of the week we will compile everyone’s submissions and share them on our site!
(If you want to send me a photo of a woman you’d like to honor, as well as a short phrase about her, I can put the text on the photo as I did above. Email me here!)
