The Women in Business Council is dedicated to offering education and networking opportunities for Women in Business. WIBC Mentorship Bootcamp, Presented by Lickstein Plastic Surgery, is an opportunity for women facing challenges affecting their career or business to grow personally and professionally. The three-month Bootcamp will offer one-on-one mentorship paired with a virtual classroom in three main focus areas: Public Speaking, Budgeting, and Goal Setting.
Upon the completion of the course, participants will have gained valuable knowledge and skills to advance their careers while building a network of personal and professional contacts.
Public Speaking for the Virtual Speaker, Presented by JSS Marketing & Public Relations: Perfecting your introduction, story, and presentation.
This section of the program will focus on the impression we make, why your interactions need to be impactful, and how to make it happen. Your ability to convey your message and story is an essential tool for marketing yourself and effectively express yourself in all professional situations. Participants will learn how to craft their message, then present and perfect their personal presentation as a positive, lasting, and memorable introduction.
