Women often have the added burden of proving their own competence while facing the everyday challenges of a busy career. Resilience is the skill that enables women of every age to cope, regroup, and model the attributes of leadership, wherever they are within an organization.

Having the ability to take whatever is dealt and still focus on staying on top of our game takes awareness, understanding, and action. This is why resilience in numbers is our chosen topic of discussion. We'll be hearing from a number of inspirational and resilient women who have gained resilience from their network, bounced back, and inspired others. 

Chairing the event will be `She Can Prosper` founder Diane Watson, UK Principal Partner at Sovereign Wealth.
