- Managing Career Plateau's & Turbulence
In today's
turbulent workplace, black women are still facing the "concrete ceiling"
and are either stuck in the pipeline or losing ground in their efforts
to advance in their careers. Regardless of whether you are in corporate,
educational, legal, health, social services or government fields, now
more than ever, you need insights from sisters on the front line to
prevail. Hear an Executive Panel of accomplished black women
pathfinders, contributing and prevailing in diverse professions,
candidly discuss career stagnation and their successful efforts to
overcome them and achieve the highest levels of career attainment.

Professional Branding workshop will be covered at this seminar.
