Women iN buSINESS
YOUR FUTURE CAN BE BRIGHTER THAN YOU THINK IF YOU MAKE THE RIGHT DECISIONS NOW!
Objectives
The academic objective of this trip is to expose the young women to successful women in both corporate and entrepreneurial settings. The goal is for women to learn, not from books but from women who have been there what it takes to be successful.
A secondary goal is to create a network of support for women – in essence to provide them with a circle of mentors that they can draw on for advice and support as they move through school and launch their careers.
See the future
Meet with women who are changing the world – both through their entrepreneurial enterprises and by breaking the glass ceiling in the corporate world.
Learn the lessons that they had to learn the hard way. Find out the secrets to their success – and come away with a group of people eager to help you find and succeed on your own path.
Meet with leaders
You will meet with leaders in the corporate world, founders of companies, heads of mentoring organizations. You will come away not just with insights about what these women did to succeed, but tools to help you find your own path at work.
