2006 Women's Leadership Conference
The Leadership Conference will address women's issues such as effective communication and listening skills, negotiating self-worth, and gaining personal and career opportunities from professional, nonprofit, and social organizations within the context of Listen, Speak, Act. The conference celebrates women who have taken leadership roles. By listening to their strengths we'll find our own action pathway to leadership.
Held each spring, the Elizabeth Somers Leadership Center and the Women's Leadership Conference bring together an intergenerational audience of professional women, many of whom are alumnae, and students to discuss the personal and professional challenges facing women in the 21st century.
Listen, Speak, Act.
