This International Women’s Day, join award-winning alumna Neveen Galal, Founder of Amnesty Solicitors. Neveen will offer her insight and advice on how to be a successful leader, and reflect on her journey to becoming an immigration human rights lawyer.
In this talk, Neveen will explain how she has developed her own leadership style and how she planned her own career path to reach a senior level in the legal sector within three years of graduating.
The talk will also address how you can deal with and respond effectively to negativity or setbacks to propel and spur you on, rather than allow it to become embedded in your mind and have a detrimental impact on your personal and professional development.
Neveen will also answer your questions during the Q&A session following the talk.
