Tough Questions | Straight Answers | Real Strategies
Join the circle each month with the Frank & Eileen™ Center for Women’s Entrepreneurial Leadership (F&E CWEL) and our expert hosts, as we talk gender, leadership, and careers. Bring your questions and leave with strategies to advance yourself, level the field, and lift others up, as you make your mark as an entrepreneurial leader. This program is designed to bring people of all gender identities into the circle.
"Being part of the F&E CWEL Circles program was an integral part of my final year as a Babson MBA student. The unique setting which allows for active participation provided me with the opportunity to tailor each circle, no matter the theme, to my own personal and professional development. Each evening, I left with a renewed sense of confidence and new connections, some of which have now grown into invaluable mentorship opportunities."
