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
