Drop the Ball—Achieving More By Doing Less With Tiffany Dufu | 2017 Session

Tiffany Dufu

Responsibilities at work and home often leave women without the bandwidth to succeed—and wondering if their career and personal goals are unachievable.

In this session, Conference for Women speaker Tiffany Dufu, one of Fast Company’s “League of Extraordinary Women” and once the poster child for doing it all, will offer a progressive approach to addressing the division of labor in your home.

She will give you the permission you need to drop the ball and help you reevaluate priorities, embrace imperfection and alter your expectations so that you can focus on the goals that truly matter to you!
