Calling all emerging leaders, young professionals, and supporters of Female Strong!
Join Female Strong’s Young Professionals Program for “Nail Your Niche,” our first event of 2023 hosted at the newly reimagined amenity floor at 225 W Wacker.
Hosted in partnership with Cushman & Wakefield, Stream Realty Partners, and Spear Street Capital, this fireside chat will tackle important topics for emerging leaders—whether you just received your dream job/promotion, are looking to advance in your current role, or have begun to explore a new career path. Speakers will share personal experiences and advice around building personal and professional networks, developing as a leader in your industry, establishing yourself as a promotion-worthy team member, tips for making a career change, and more related topics.
