Stephanie Bschorr's hobby is sailing. Whenever she has time, she takes to the water. It’s a discipline where being a strategic thinker helps a lot, she says. The qualified lawyer runs an auditing firm in Berlin together with two partners. Bschorr joined the company while still a student - and now has a 30 percent stake in the enterprise. Among her other activities is president of the national association of businesswomen, which lobbies for more women in Germany’s boardrooms. Bschorr is married with two children - and is only too aware of the challenges involved in balancing career and family.
