Present
An Industry Leadership Series Event:

"Cultivate Your Network Before You Need It!"

Formal and informal networks are critical to career success. They provide access to information, informal knowledge, and connections to opportunities. However, not everyone is equally adept at building their personal networks. Moreover, research shows that women's organizational networks tend to be more sparse and marginalized than those of men. The most obvious choices for network building are not always the smartest, whereas sometimes the least apparently promising connections can prove to be quite fruitful. join us on Tuesday, March 11th in San Francisco for an evening of advice featuring a great panel that will discuss building and maintaining your personal network to maximize opportunities and success.
