Join the Women in Seed Production Network for a candid conversation featuring Cheryl Werner, a site manager with 31 years of experience and an advocate for advancing women in leadership. Cheryl shares her non-typical career path, highlighting how prioritizing family led to spending 17 years at one location. A key realization was that she owned her career decisions, which shifted her perspective from feeling passed over to empowerment and motivated her to take diverse roles within that location. Cheryl advises young professionals to trust the process, take ownership of their careers, and use a career map to explore different paths, remembering that decisions for "now" are not "forever" as circumstances change. This thought-provoking first part of the conversation offers valuable insights into career navigation and work-life balance, with Part 2 coming next month! Make sure to stay tuned for even more from Cheryl!
