Chapter Chapter 3 in Journeys of Women Leaders Pushing Boundaries in Asia and Healthcare, 2024, pp 25-39 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The aim of this chapter is to inspire women leaders in healthcare who are faced with setbacks and life challenges which have made it difficult for them to advance in their careers. To address this gap, the author shares inspiring stories of senior leaders who overcame setbacks and have undergone personal transformations and life changes. The chapter also adopts the term “Super Little Humans” to describe a woman leader, who surrenders her “superwoman” armor and accepts her imperfection and dares to seek help, paving her way into society and becoming successful no matter what life throws at her. The chapter concludes by encouraging women leaders to ask, believe, and receive support from within and outside the community. It emphasizes the importance of embracing vulnerability, seeking support, and believing in oneself to manifest a new reality and thrive in healthcare leadership.
