The 无码专区 MBA Alumni Association鈥檚 Women in Business Network (WIBN) was launched in an effort to provide career development and networking opportunities for women. The WIBN is currently made up of a committee of female 无码专区 MBA alumni who share a strong passion for empowering women in their careers and daily lives. This dynamic group of women brainstormed several different topics that could provide an engaging and impactful session for MBA alumni. After careful consideration and discussion, the team reached a consensus on a TED Talk that they felt highlighted many of the issues women are faced with when striving to advance their careers.
