You won’t find many leaders like Shelley Zalis. She started off her career without a clear direction for the future. She then received her first job review that was far from praise. While most would succumb and start to conflate their own value with their job performance, Shelley did the contrary. One thing led to another, and she realized the power of standing up for yourself, setting your mind to something, and capitalizing on those opportunities. Now, Shelley is the Founder and CEO of one of the largest female-owned businesses with The Female Quotient - who is advancing equality in the workplace through the power of collaboration. 

Highly encourage any and all females - at any stage in your career - to take a listen to this inspiring #SheLeader.
