What’s Brewing: Breaking Barriers for Women in Business – March 16

We will focus on identifying the challenges and barriers that many women face at various stages of their career development, from grade school all the way up to executive leadership positions. You will hear firsthand from professionals that can speak to these barriers from both expertise and their own lived experiences. The key takeaway for this event will be for folks to leave more informed about how we can collectively make improvements in encouraging and supporting women leaders in our organizations and as a society. You’ll have the opportunity to get your questions answered in the Q&A session to follow. Before and after our speakers, we’ll have plenty of time for networking — plus bites and beverages.
