Last week I attended a local women’s business network.
They were having their annual conference and had asked me to present a workshop on how their members could boost their credibility, visibility and hireability online – something that many of them had been struggling with.
Listening to the general conversation during the networking breaks andother presentations, it became clear that many of the 40-odd women had feelings of inadequacy and self-doubt when it came to their businesses.
