Julie provides professional advice for advancing: own your mistakes and your successes quickly. When it is your team you lead, you take responsibility for everyone. We are all human and sometimes forget or make mistakes, and women often hold on to failure longer. Women need to let the mistakes go and celebrate high points. Do not be afraid to ask for what you are worth.
