Program Description
This panel comprised of senior women attorneys will discuss the powerful networks women attorneys should be building to advance within the legal profession. The panel includes several members of a unique networking group who are located across the United States/Canada and originally met at a corporate women's retreat. Years later, these women continue to meet in-person twice a year to discuss business issues and work experiences, to brainstorm, problem solve, give and receive feedback and to mentor each other (yes, even the most senior women lawyers need mentors). This dynamic group also actively refers business to each other. Moderated by The Careerist, Vivia Chen, this promises to be an insightful discussion on the ways we can help each other succeed.
