Slideshow: Dare to fail, Genomic Health boss tells Women in Bio's new SF chapter

Kim Popovits was speaking to 150 women launching the San Francisco Bay Area chapter of Women in Bio Thursday night, but her message was appropriate for both genders: build relationships, trust the people around you and dare to fail.
The chairman, president and CEO of Redwood City cancer diagnostic test developer Genomic Health Inc. (NASDAQ: GHDX) told a rapt audience at UCSF’s Mission Bay Conference Center that along with a board of directors at Genomic Health, she has her personal board of directors. Those are people who she’s watched how they treat people or make decisions or raise their families.
