| Connecting Our Community November Highlights |
|
Women in Business Conference |
| Our 2024 Women in Business Conference was a full day spent polishing potential and revealing the brilliance of more than 150 women leaders.
From our keynote speaker Lori Robertson, we learned that we're already capable of greatness - all we need to do is hone in our authenticity, clarity and community.
From our women's panel, we learned the high-pressure conditions that so often try to break us are what turn us into diamonds. Not just for ourselves, but to help us shine in the lives of others who may need our vulnerability in sharing our stories.
From our breakout speakers, we learned how to overcome mediocrity, provide our teams with feedback that fuels growth, how to master self-leadership in a chaotic world and how to navigate the unique challenges of negotiation.
From each other, we learned that networking is powerful and community is so, so important.
Thank you to all who attended!
