Women Inspiring Women: Speed Networking
Description Join Women Inspiring Women for an afternoon of honest conversation, meaningful connection, and shared experiences with women leaders from across our community. During this unique speed networking event, attendees will rotate through small-group conversations led by local women serving as our networking "anchors." Each round will explore topics women have told us they want to discuss more openly, including navigating imposter syndrome, taking risks, building confidence, having difficult conversations, advocating for yourself, and learning from the experiences that shape us personally and professionally. This isn't about polished answers or traditional networking small talk. It's an opportunity to hear real stories, gain new perspectives, and connect with women at different stages of their lives and careers. Come ready to listen, share, ask questions, and leave feeling encouraged by the women around you.
