Why a panel discussion on portfolio careers?


A survey by Resume NowMore found that more than three-quarters of women say that they want to make a career change, often because they need more flexibility.


That is probably why you're hearing more and more about portfolio careers.


A portfolio career means combining several flexible roles - maybe a fractional role, some consulting, that small business idea that you've been mulling over for a while, or a corporate or advisory board.


Our panelists will discuss how they've landed fractional and consulting roles, started a business, gotten on a corporate board. and the pros and cons of a portfolio career.


The panel moderator & event sponsor is Priyanca Rao, a photographer known for her stunning branding portraits and an expert on personal branding.


Our panelists are:


Michelle Hsaio, a consultant & fractional COO to growing CPG companies


Jubilee Po who launched Dewy Aesthetics while still employed fulltime


Erin Essenmacher, an experienced corporate board member & lead at Athena Alliance who helps other women find corporate board roles
