Sara Wachter-Boettcher inspires us through her actions, reminds us why it’s important to see shades of grey, and helps us to design the careers we actually want. Highlights include: Is it career limiting to enforce a work/life boundary? Do we have to accept that companies exist to serve shareholders? Should we ever sacrifice our wellbeing to solve important problems? Who or what inspired you to become a feminist leader? Why are some people uncomfortable with life’s shades of grey? ====== Who is Sara Wachter-Boettcher?
