Managing Careers and Children

If you are a good manager, will you also be a good mother one day?
Are good managers automatically good mothers?
Are the skills you apply to your three year old's tantrum similar to those you apply to that irrational guy at the office? 
Is there such a thing as a balance or is it only possible to be truly successful at one or the other?
Are we "having it all", or are we really missing out on something?
Is there room for the "me" in the life of a working mum?

Louisa Robb will facilitate this open and interactive discussion on lifestyle choices, and is looking forward to hearing all of the different sides of the discussion –whether you have a career or children, or both, or none – we look forward to welcoming you all.
