For the first time history, women in Vietnam and throughout Asia have the opportunity to pursue their dreams. Your dream might be to be a career woman, a stay-at-home mother, or someone who tries to juggle both. At a time when many young middle-class women have grown up in Vietnam and then studied abroad—or who have grown up abroad and then returned to Vietnam, Phương offers business insight and guidance to these global citizens. She is someone who will always be Vietnamese in her heart, but feels equally at home wherever she is in the world.

Drawing from this global perspective, Phương provides us with both a global and local mindset, a huge advantage in business today. She is helping women to throw off the shackles history has heaped on them and achieve their highest dreams.
