PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT EVENTS

These Professional Development Events provide a comfortable event for business women and entrepreneurs to meet monthly, exchange ideas and discuss business challenges.

Unlike a leads group or meetings with frantic business card swapping, Professional Development Events focus on moving from casual contacts to trusted colleagues who bring a wealth of insight, savvy and creativity to stimulate and nourish the appetites of motivated business women.

Each meeting offers provocative topics that will raise your awareness and provide a safe and encouraging environment to test your ideas and gain confidence as you benefit from interaction with other bright and engaging business women.
