Women Leaders Talk About Achieving a Successful Life

I just ran across this article about women leaders. It ran in Newsweek and MSNBC last October, but I’m glad I found it. 12 Leaders on Life - Women and Leadership

In the article 12 leaders discuss what it takes to make it. Some of the women featured include:

• Alison Estabrook, Director of the Comprehensive Breast Center at St. Luke’s-Roosevelt Hospital, Judith Shapiro
  
• Judith Shapiro, President, Barnard College
  
• Maria Elena Lagomasino, Former Chairman and CEO, JP Morgan Private Bank
  
• Stacey Snider, Chairman, Universal Pictures
  
• Eileen Collins, NASA Astronaut, Commander, Space Shuttle Discovery
  
• Judith Rodin, President, The Rockefeller Foundation
  

As travel writers and editors, we can face some tough “go get a real job” judgment on our paths. That’s why it’s important to hear Alison Estabrook say,

“You must make sacrifices. You work hard and make very little money in the beginning. And you have to believe in yourself and not listen to other people who try to discourage you from reaching your goal.”
