"Can Women Have It All?" FORUM
(Held in conjunction with the launch of the book "Successful Work-Life Balance")
Following the controversial article "Why women still can't have it all" by Anne-Marie Slaughter in The Arctic, there have been many online (and offline) discussions about whether women can successfully balance work and family. As women take on the role of mothers, it becomes increasingly challenging to manage the time to rise to the top of their career paths. However, there have been many successful examples of women who juggle all their roles successfully.
So, the ultimate question is: Can Women Have It All?
In conjunction with the launch of the book "Successful Work-Life Balance", Mums@Work (Singapore), together with Ray Media Publishing is delighted to present a lively, interactive discussion featuring 6 dynamic, inspirational women in Singapore. An honest heart-to-heart discussion with the distinguished panel of ladies who have, over the years, balanced their growing family and a successful career (or a business).
Come hear them share about the challenges they faced, and how they overcame them. Following the talk, there will also be a short breakout session where mothers can interact with one another and also ask further questions specific to work-life balance.
