Join us for an empowering event that celebrates and elevates women in business: "Leadership for Today and Tomorrow" presented by the Founder of Career Potential, Dr. Melissa Furman.
Leaders have been navigating change and disruption for the past few years and many changes have occurred at an accelerated pace. As a result, leaders need to evaluate their abilities, preferences, and perspectives to continue to successfully lead their organizations through this new era of uncertainty and constant flux.

This dynamic gathering is designed exclusively for professional women seeking to enhance their leadership skills, gain valuable insights, and thrive in the ever-evolving business landscape. Attendees can expect to connect with like-minded professionals, expand your network, and leave inspired to make a lasting impact in your career and beyond.
Don't miss this unparalleled opportunity to join a community of exceptional women, gain valuable insights from accomplished leaders, and take your leadership skills to new heights. Register today and embark on a transformative journey of growth, empowerment, and success in the world of business.

Her expertise include generational diversity, unconscious bias, leadership success, and emotional intelligence. She brings her background in higher education (particularly business, counseling, and psychology) to the conversation to help individuals and organizations achieve success.
