Visibility Mentor Bozoma Saint James On Being Seen.

There's a reason she is known on social media as "Badass Boz." She plays big. She takes risks and she knows when it is time to make the next move. For the past few years, "Badass Boz," has been hard to miss on social media, in business publications and on industry stages around the globe. She is smart. Unapologetic. Fierce.

She's moved from Apple Music, to Uber to her most recent move to William Morris Endeavor, where she serves as the Chief Marketing Officer. Organization's call her when they are looking to "change the game."

But one of the things that are most noteworthy about Boz is her "way of being." She truly is a force of nature that is actively challenging mainstream corporate to re-evaluate what is considered "acceptable."

Six years ago, she lost her husband, the love of her life. That provided the catalyst to shift the way that she was showing up. There are so many professional women driving with one foot on the gas and one of the breaks. If that is you, here are a few strategies from Boz to help you become the badass version of yourself:

-      Don’t hold yourself back by compartmentalizing who you are; bring your entire self.

-      Don’t wait to network until you are looking for a job; relationship managing can be your secret weapon.

-      Don’t walk into any space and feel like you need to conform to that space; let others conform to you

-      Don’t dress for the job you want. Instead, dress in a way that makes you feel most powerful
