We're excited to share this insightful article from Julia Rafal-Baer of Women Leading Ed, exploring the valuable lessons Simone Biles' journey offers to women leaders in education. At Presence, we're passionate about empowering female leaders and fostering a supportive community. That's why we're proud to be a company that offers our employee base and provider network, which are both predominantly female, with remote, flexible work opportunities. As Dr. Baer cited, too often women have to choose between personal obligations and career advancement.
