Join us for an interactive workshop that will inspire you to achieve your next career goals. This event is in collaboration with ShEvalesco.

About this event

In this 1.5 hour workshop, we will dive into how to make "the ask" at work, and how to handle difficult conversations in workplace. Your next step to a career advancement might be asking to take on more opportunities at work; it might be asking for a raise after working at the same position for a while; it might be how to handle your next performance review or how to share your knowledge in a group meeting. Hands-on and interactive in nature, we will examine each of these topics through a strength-based lens.

Can’t wait to see you there!
