The Women’s Leadership Conference offers women from all backgrounds the chance to come together and develop professionally and personally through workshops, keynote speakers, and networking events. This year’s theme is “I Will” which encompasses the idea that once a woman decides to do something, it will happen. She is confident and determined to succeed, passionate to pursue what she wishes, and unafraid to be herself, no matter where or who she is. We hope this concept speaks to you, and we hope that you will attend to learn more about what action you can take.
Join us on Saturday, March 2nd, from 8:30am-4pm at the Historic Academy of Medicine for a day of workshops and speakers to learn how you can, and will, be as strong and successful as you can be. This year, tickets are $10 for students and $25 for non-students. Included in the registration fee are a phenomenal keynote speaker, three workshop sessions offering three choices of topics each, a networking fair, as well as breakfast and lunch. If you are interested in buying a bundle of tickets for a discounted rate, please let us know!
We hope that you will attend to learn how to raise your voice to transform your workplace, community, and the world. We look forward to seeing you there!
