The success of your organization depends on fresh ideas and new perspectives. Hear from Neelu Kaur, author of Be Your Own Cheerleader, empowers you to embrace self-advocacy, share ideas confidently, and drive innovation. Unfortunately, many professionals struggle to speak up and advocate for themselves in the workplace. Innovation is stifled because the expectation is that new ideas can only come from the top and that everyone else should only be concerned with day-to-day operations. Neelu provides practical strategies to ensure every voice is heard, fostering a culture of creativity and empowerment.
