Daphne E. Jones is no stranger to adversity. As a young black woman interested in a STEM career, a career counselor once told her that she should be a secretary. Instead of blindly following this so-called "professional" advice, Daphne developed a plan to change the impossible to the inevitable. Since then, she's held numerous executive and leadership positions with companies like IBM, Johnson & Johnson, and General Electric. Her tactical and structured approach to career ownership includes a realistic framework for envisioning, designing, iterating, and transforming your life. In this episode, Daphne opens up about her new book, Win When They Say You Won't: Break Through Barriers and Keep Leveling Up Your Success, and offers valuable advice for overcoming the adversity in your life.
