WE'RE EMPOWERING WOMEN
with our Career Success Series
|
Beginning with a listening session where we gathered input from local women, we launched a career success series in the autumn of 2016. Designed to help women succeed both in the workplace and in business as entrepreneurs, we put together monthly workshops led by seasoned local experts, covering topics from honing your interviewing skills, negotiating your salary, and mentorship to starting a business, the art of networking, and a speed networking event.
All-day public speaking workshops from the renowned Own the Room organization, a $495 value free for participants, were next... and in the autumn of 2018 we launched a Toastmasters Junior group for high school girls. Toastmasters Jr.Our summer 2019 Toastmasters Junior Art Docent program just wrapped up! See the photos from the girls' final presentation in July.
Local high school girls participated in this exciting new summer program. A collaboration between our Toastmasters Junior program and the Gibbes Museum of Art, we introduced them to art and public speaking in a low-stress environment where a friendly facilitator and their peers were their mentors. On June 11 these girls began attending twice-weekly small group workshops designed to expand their knowledge of art and history while boosting their communication and leadership skills. Then they selected a work of art from the Black Refractions: Highlights of the Studio Museum in Harlem and created a tour and presentation to deliver to their family, facilitators, and peers, along with members of the public. Stay tuned to this website for our next Toastmasters Jr. program for high school girls!
