Mark your calendar for Thursday, March 25, 2021, for the 3rd Annual Women's Business Conference at the Dakota Event Center in Aberdeen!
We know that March 2021 seems like a long way off but it will be here before we know it! We look forward to a powerful and impactful day of learning, inspiration, and networking.
We've got a couple tricks up our sleeve as well with some "conference attendee" only networking events and training opportunities available over the next few months. Our goal is to help you connect with others and start building your professional and personal growth path NOW.
If you have already purchased your ticket or exhibitor booth for the postponed 2020 event, you are already in! Keep an eye on your email for more information in the next two weeks.
ANY questions in the meantime, please contact Michelle Kane at michelle.kane@bhsu.edu.
Our keynote speaker is Jennifer Pharr Davis. As a National Geographic Adventurer of the Year, Jennifer has trekked over 14,000 miles of long-distance trails over six continents. In 2011, she covered the 2,185 mile Appalachian Trail (the “A.T.”) in forty-six days, eleven hours and twenty minutes, maintaining a remarkable average of forty-seven miles per day. By doing this, she claimed the overall (male or female) fastest known time on the ‘A.T” and became the first woman to set the mark. Jennifer has written five books and has been featured in the New York Times, Outside, Trail Runner, NPR’s Talk of the Nation and the Washington Post. She’s also a business owner with her husband, a community leader and a mom.
Jennifer is going to share stories of her extraordinary experiences all over the world which will result in actionable steps we can take to find the life explorer in all of us – both personally and professionally.
The refreshed focus of the Women’s Business Conference will be taking charge of your professional career and creating a seat at the table … even if you are not sure where to get started or where you should go next.
The conference will speak to women in all phases of their career – from early career to seasoned professionals. Jennifer will lead two sessions. The first will include defining your focus and path, communicating clearly and setting boundaries, AND staying adaptable in any environment. The second session will discuss creative problem solving, teamwork, resiliency, and work-life balance. While she shares stories of her worldwide hiking adventures and experiences, she will provide tips and tools for success that can be implemented immediately.
There will also be a host of local leaders, business owners, and mentors sharing their stories. And a great line-up of exhibitors offering both products and services which you'll be getting a chance to get to know on our event Facebook page over the next few months.
This is the time to stand together. We will see you on March 25, 2021!
