In a demanding and high-stakes profession like law, Irene Kuo stresses the importance of finding and cultivating a supportive network – connections that not only help you navigate challenges but also empower you to grow, succeed, and truly thrive in your career.
In a recent episode of The Protégé Podcast, host Grace Robbie speaks with Irene Kuo, director of prime contract management at Fluor Australia and immediate past president of the Western Australia division of the ACC Australia, about how Legally Blonde sparked Kuo’s interest in law, the hurdles she faced moving from Taiwan to Australia as a child, and explains how discovering her own support network in the legal profession allowed her to “survive” and thrive in a law firm.
