Professional Development

One of the best ways to "network" these days is to attend a "progressive luncheon or breakfast".  Empowering Women Network, Inc. hosts several progressive breakfasts and luncheons throughout the year. 
 
Why are they so popular?  I think because everyone has a real opportunity to connect with someone new.  The format creates an opportunity for each attendee to meet up to 24 new contacts.  During a progressive luncheon the attendees MOVE from table to table.  Course #1 Salad....Course #2 Entree.....Course #3 Desert.  At each table, each attendee has 2-3 minutes to introduce themselves, their business or anything else they may have on  their mind.
 
So if you are up for some FUN and would the opportunity to meet the most amazing professionals in Chicago please join us next week at Petteroni's! For more information and to register www.empoweringwomen.net

Leadership Now ~ Let's Start Reading Again

Hello Everyone......In this fast paced, twitter crazed, podcast listening world ~ has reading taken the back seat? Think ~ what was the last book you read?  If you have to think about it probably been a long time and yet we all know that reading teaches us. 
So what to read?  What interests you? ~ that's what you read. I also suggest you choose from "living" writers and those who are now longer with us. Include some autobiographies and biographies of those writers you enjoy the most. Understanding who they are brings a deeper understanding of their work. 
So I will not suggest - Books or Writers although it's very difficult not to jot down a few here and now....Here's the deal ~ you cannot go wrong with the classics....you cannot go wrong "typically" with those writers who have written many books. 
Oh the joy of reading....
Next week....the joy of ART!
