IVANKA TRUMPI’m so grateful to my parents for my upbringing and for all of the opportunities that I was provided with, but I also learned at a young age that success is not given, it is earned and that has always been something that motivates me.
IVANKA TRUMPHonestly, I have a tendency to date dorks. Which means that a lot of times, I date guys that no one else would deem to be a hunk.
IVANKA TRUMPTraditionally women have been more reticent to acknowledge their ambition and to say it with pride. So I like having people who work for us who are ambitious, engaged, respectful. Mis-hiring is a huge mistake. It’s a tremendous opportunity cost throwing the position to the wrong person.
IVANKA TRUMPI hate having people sit in on meetings.
IVANKA TRUMPIt’s important to be honest with and respectful of each other and deal with issues as they arrive, as opposed to letting them simmer.
IVANKA TRUMPI make money because I have to pay for everything apart from my school fees. My mother even makes me pay my own telephone bill.
IVANKA TRUMPWork is changing for men as much as it is for women.
IVANKA TRUMPIf people think they can elicit from me whatever terms they want, they are mistaken.
IVANKA TRUMPWell, my mom was an Olympian, so we have some good genes on that front.
IVANKA TRUMPI probably not as likely to say what’s on my mind, and I think most people aren’t. It’s not something I would want to always be doing. So that’s why I’m not a politician.
IVANKA TRUMPSo it’s exciting for me to be able to be with him [my father, Donald trump] for major moments and stand by his side, and I’m very proud of him as a daughter and as somebody who’s worked beside him for the past decade at The Trump Organization.
IVANKA TRUMPIf people think I’m just the boss’s daughter, they’re deceived.
IVANKA TRUMPWorking in a family business, which obviously The Trump Organization is, is an incredible thing, but it’s complicated. It’s complex.
IVANKA TRUMPI don’t have a strategy. I am my own person. So if people disagree with the opinion of my father and want to dislike me because I’m his daughter, then I’m probably not going to be able to discourage them from that.
IVANKA TRUMPI set very bold goals. It’s how I’ve always been. I’m definitely somebody who swings for the fences, and I expect very high performance.
