Don’t miss your opportunity to be a part of the Women In Leadership Symposium. Check out the program details and register today!

Attending this free conference will help you leverage your unique strengths and qualities to thrive and succeed in your current and future leadership roles. You will:

- Learn how to drive your career through thoughtful and effective leadership.
- Learn how communication skills can be a pathway to career success.
- Gain an understanding of some of the issues that women face in various career paths, especially ones where women are underrepresented or have difficulty obtaining leadership positions.
- Understand how important it is to align your personal values with your everyday leadership behaviors.
- Strengthen your network with successful women including University of Akron alumnae & faculty and community leaders.

 

Our Why

We believe when women find their strength, leverage the strength of others, level-up their leadership skills, build networks, and grow in their communities, the world is a better place.  We offer a Symposium and foster a community where people in all stages in their leadership journey come to learn, grow, and connect so they can confidently advance their careers and professional development. And we do it to raise-up our future leaders by shattering barriers that exist in our world today.
