Women In The World: Designing Disruption

April 7, 2017

Designing Disruption featured an incredible panel of women who were asked by moderator and best-selling author, Kathy Lette to offer one piece of advice to women who want "to be the leaders in their profession." Here's what each badass lady had to say.

Elaine Welteroth | Editor, Teen Vogue

“[My advice] is inspired by a song by Solange, own your seat at the table. Really, really own your seat at the table.”
— Elaine Welteroth

Jeannine Sargent | President of Innovation and New Ventures, Flex

“Get engaged. Be active. Knowledge is a way for you to be able to make informed decisions and control your own destiny. Understand what’s going on around you and participate.”
— Jeannine Sargent

Tracee Ellis Ross | Award-Winning Actress and Activist

“That question, ‘Can women have it all?’ Turn it back on yourself, What do you want? Stay curious and get a network of women and people around you that can support you, because using your voice and going after your dreams means that there’s often a backlash inside and you need a support group of people — some that are ahead of you, some that are where you are and some that you can pay it forward to that are behind you in the path. Get a network.”
— Tracee Ellis Ross

Diane von Furstenberg | Founder and Co-Chairman, DVF Studio

“The first thing is, remember that the most important relationship in life in the one you have with yourself. If you have that, any other relationship is a plus, and not a must. And the other thing is that when you wake up in the morning and you’re feeling like a loser, which happens to all of us, remember that if you doubt your power, you give power to your doubts.”
— Diane von Furstenberg

Jo Ann Jenkins | CEO, AARP

“Live your life fearlessly and have the courage to know who you are and the power to help some other woman along the way.”
— Jo Ann Jenkins
