It actually gave me a lot of hope. Bear with me. I always thought that I could never made it to a CEO or anywhere in the C-suite because of my lack of karisma and not being a likeable person. But after today, I have a lot of hope guys, watch me get there!

How do you know your value? Throughout my 10 yrs of being in a professional setting, I've had colleagues from various places of employment say, I don't think you know your worth. You're under valued, etc. What exercises/tools have helped you realize your worth and effectively advocate for it? TIA!
