Mrs Natalie Chapman, Managing Director, gemaker, is delivering the opening keynote. She says she fits the current model of a scientist: she's had 12 jobs by the time she reached age 40. She's gone from research to industry lab testing to marketing! #SciPath18pic.twitter.com/BUfEE31qg2

Natalie Chapman got her first major leadership role in marketing not because of her science degree but because she worked at KFC in customer service & as a cook for 7 years, also managing staff. Life experience is just as important as qualifications. #SciPath18pic.twitter.com/jNeGZPJ4KH

Natalie Chapman is sharing her career failures, including reapplying for jobs years later. She says relationships are important. "You have to risk rejection.
