"Be authentic. Be you. Be humble"

"Learn from last years winners, and raise that bar" 

"Be loud about the things that are important to you!"

"Have an opinion"

"Show how your personal achievements break through into new areas, how you support your colleagues, or in shaping the industry for the better"

"The most important thing is to be your authentic self. When you’re trying to portray an image of what you think we want to see, versus the reality, it’s often a hazard that people trip over. There’s no substitute for hard facts."
