WOMEN IN BUSINESS LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE

The mission of the annual Women in Business Leadership Conference, organized and hosted by the women at the McCombs School of Business, is to cultivate and enrich the MBA women's academic experience, enhance career networks for women, and celebrate the remarkable strengths women bring to corporate America. We bring together motivated MBA students, alumni, successful corporate businesswomen, and thriving entrepreneurs from all over the country to connect, discuss, and learn more about issues facing women.  

 

This conference occurs every February and you will have the opportunity to get involved and help organize this great event.  Michelle Silver, a second year MBA student, will be leading the conference this year. Please contact Amanda if you would like to get involved.
