For women in all seasons of their leadership journey, BWIL offers regular meetings and professional development opportunities to meet your professional needs and help you reach your aspirations. We recognize learning as a continual process throughout one’s life. We value the opportunity to learn from the wisdom of thought leaders and experts as well as through discussion and sharing our personal experiences and perspectives. Who: Professional women and their allies are invited to join.
What: Opportunity to connect women and their allies across professions and generations through various networking and professional development events on a regular basis. Where: Greater Bloomington area - Events are hosted primarily at women-owned/managed businesses/organizations. Why: Women are relational by nature and are the glue that keep communities and organizations connected. The desire to help other women succeed will help BWIL women recharge their professional batteries, develop meaningful relationships, and learn more about local women-owned and managed businesses. |
