"The success I have obtained”, explained Simonetta Di Pippo to the audience in Rome, “have been achieved with determination, diligence and study, capacity of taking calculated risks, innovative thinking and even a bit of sense of humour sometimes".
"I was able to get to the results because of my continuous commitment to self-improvement, to learn from experience, and to 'feel' the situations and the people. This is an asset that women have and that can be very beneficial to all", she added.
