Executive Connections 2.0 is the sequel program to Executive Connections 1.0, offering ongoing confidential discussions and networking to those who have completed Executive Connections 1.0 and wish to continue benefitting from the conversation and professional support.
This group follows a very similar structure, meeting monthly in small confidential groups, and assumes that all attendees are familiar with the eight principles outlined in Becoming Athena: Eight Principles of Enlightened Leadership. Discussions are facilitated, with a wider range of learning opportunities and discussions. Based on the interests of the group, other leadership styles and models can be introduced and discussed. One monthly meeting will be replaced by a full-day field trip to a selected Michigan city, with a goal of learning from women executives by visiting and touring their companies while hearing about their work and their journey.
Executive Connections 2.0 will launch with a reception in September at the University Club (date and time to be determined)/ Meetings will be held monthly from 8:30 - 10:30 a.m. from October through June, with a full-day field trip scheduled in April or May.
Cost: $1,000/year
