Valerie's thoughts on the conference:

The IWF World Leadership Conferences are truly inspiring experiences. You have the unique opportunity of meeting and talking with women leaders from all over the world. I don’t know about you, but the international perspective brings relevance to the way we think and lead and it’s not often, at least for me, that we get that opportunity. I encourage everyone, especially those who have never attended a conference, to make sure you do. It’ll be worth it, trust me!
