Spencer Fane attorney Heidi Basset was recently featured in the Bizwomen.com article, How to Overcome Bias with Influence: Strategies Women Leaders Use.
In the piece, Heidi and four of her fellow Bizwomen Leadership Council members outlined strategies for navigating gender bias and thriving in male-dominated spaces. Sharing that she views these challenges as added motivation to succeed, Heidi explained:
“My confidence grew tremendously when I stopped trying to confront biases and focused on things within my control. I committed myself to knowing the law and the facts of each case better than my opponents, and I would be the most prepared for trial every time. It worked.”
