Let's Toast to Your Next Act

"I'm done with that phase of my career. But I'm not done done." More women are exiting corporate & creating their own second career act.
About this Event

Women are exiting corporate America in record numbers.

They're retiring.

Getting laid off & downsized.

At every age, women are deciding that they're just done with whatever they've been doing.

And now they want to create & control their next career act.

If that's you, join us for this jam-packed 90 minute event that includes a brief hands-on workshop, an informational panel discussion, a structured networking session designed to help you network your way onto a corporate board, & two motivating mini key notes from LinkedIn Top Voices.

You'll walk away with key insights, an action plan, encouragement, & new connections.
