Women’s Leadership Conference:The Art of Being a Successful Woman
Regional Center for Workforce Education & Training, Woodbridge
$65/Members; $80/Non-Members
Keynote Speaker: Beth Cabrera, Ph.D., Senior Scholar, George Mason Center for the Advancement of Well-Being 
 
You know her: That perfect picture you have in your mind of what it means to be successful. THAT woman perfectly balances motherhood and a career, never letting anyone down. She’s financially stable enough to travel the world and gives back in the community. She’s the kind of leader that anyone would want to work under; wise, gracious and accepting of new ideas, with the patience of Job. In short: she does it all and she has it all. 
 
Sounds like a lot of work! It’s time you learned that any great work of art is created in layers: built little by little into something beautifully, interestingly comprised of both intentionality and happy mistakes! Join your Chamber for a day of powerful presentations and inspirational workshops, at the 6th annual Prince William Women’s Leadership Conference. All women welcome!
