Check out Bisila Bokoko,Ladybrille Woman of the Month January 2015, on a panel alongside Angela Jia Kim, Nicole Yershon, among others, as she discusses not asking for permission to lead in business or personal life.

“Gone are the days when agencies took a passive stance and responded to briefs. Today, real leaders are constantly surveying the landscape for cues, trends, and news — all while listening to their own inner gut about what’s possible for their agencies and clients. Hear first-hand from some rabble-rousers who routinely “see the invisible” and make it visible — and profitable — for others. If you’ve ever been called a visionary or told you color outside the lines, this is the session for you.
Featuring Bisila Bokoko, Businesswoman, Speaker, Philanthropist; Nicole Yershon, Director of Innovative Solutions at Ogilvy & Mather UK; Jimmie Stone, EVP/ECD of Edelman New York; and Matt Eastwood, Worldwide CCO of J. Walter Thompson. Moderated by Angela Jia Kim, CEO and Founder of Om Aroma & Co. and Savor Spa.”
