OPPOSITION Leader Pennelope Beckles says balancing leadership with humility is important to achieving success in politics.

Beckles offered this advice to participants at the Caribbean Women in Leadership (CIWiL) Capacity-Building Workshop for Women in Politics at the Kapok Hotel, Port of Spain on June 5.

In expressing this view in her address to the forum, Beckles said, "In politics, one must be able to walk with kings and queens while maintaining a common touch.”
