From TEDWomen:
At TEDWomen 2015, we’ll explore the bold ideas that create momentum in how we think, live and work today. From the young scientist revealing a breakthrough discovery to the activist who methodically transformed how the world thinks about women. From the veteran CEO whose trade secrets turn organizations around to the athlete whose extraordinary comeback shocked the world.

Lisa Fey

Being a woman in sports television in the 80s was rare - and as a college student I didn't see any barriers to getting a job - so I just called and asked. Well, it wasn't simply that easy - but also not that hard. I have a love for storytelling and humor. What I learned was to go after what you want - and I believe I can share that passion and give people permission and and enable that first step in going after their dream. Desire and perseverance; supported by a willingness to work hard and learn. My first promotion at The Coca-Cola Company brought me to Dallas, and it was only the beginning. As the result of that first phone call, I just retired from The Coca-Cola Company after 30 years.
