New Women

“Bu kitabı, iş hayatına yeni atılacak gençlerle ve ilgilenen kimselerle âcizane tecrübelerimi paylaşmak için kaleme aldım. Hayattaki temel ilkelerimi, değerlerimi ve bunları uygularken karşılaştığım zorlukları paylaşmak istedim. Tabii ki herkes gibi ben de mükemmel deği­lim.

Kimseye ders vermek niyetinde değilim ancak tecrübelerin bilinmesinin de önemli olduğu­nu ve insanlara katkı sağlayacağını düşünü­yorum.”
