At the Jan. 24 luncheon in New York, Top Women in PR honorees shared their thoughts on how to attain a true work/life balance, the principal qualities they look for in communications team members, leadership qualities they have long admired in others and what makes for a powerful mentor/mentee relationship.
Attendees also heard a keynote presentation from Maya Nussbaum, founder and executive director of Girls Write Now, which mentors underserved young women to find their voices through the power of writing and community.
