Description
When you reach a crossroads, will you put your life, your career, or your reputation on the line?
Can you pivot your leadership style at a moments notice? What does it mean to "man-up" in the business world?
Will you dare to take on great failure for the hope of great rewards, or will you stay on the sidelines?
The third annual Sloan Women in Management Conference will take place on February 8. This year’s conference – “Dare to Fail” – pushes us to question our risk thresholds and to ask how men and women respond differently in crisis scenarios. Last year 200 people were left on the wait list at this limited capacity event. Don't stand on the sidelines — buy your ticket today.
