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 two hour workshop, we will dive into how to get a step ahead, and what that means for you. Your step ahead might be expanding your network through informational interviews; it might be battling those pesky thinking traps that threaten to hold you back; it might be how to go after that wage increase that you deserve. 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!
