Join this not-to-miss workshop that will build on the discussions during the main program.

This workshop provides a unique opportunity to sit down with a group of inspiring and influential, experienced professionals who will impart invaluable guidance for women at all career stages on how to move up the ladder and make your mark. Come prepared with the questions you’ve always wanted to ask, but never had the chance to and take advantage of this intimate mentorship opportunity.

The smaller group, “closed door” atmosphere will allow for even more discussion on sensitive, hot button issues! Our esteemed panelists will discuss key topics, including:

• Advice for shattering the glass ceiling and overcoming the silent, invisible barriers to career development and advancement

• Skills necessary to thrive at all levels

• Charting your path:

» Defining your career goals

» What to do if you are not being heard or moving up the ladder

• Career transitions: How to know if you are making the right choice to swap hats, accept a promotion or stay put

• Negotiation dos and don’ts: The verbal (and non-verbal) mistakes to avoid

• What to look for in relationships with outside counsel and their teams

• Managing stress and tight deadlines amid the need for work-life balance

• Success stories and nightmare scenarios-and their broader lessons
