This year’s roundtable discussion topics include:
Leadership & Skills Building
- The Art of Negotiation
Negotiation is a critical leadership skill—whether you’re advocating for yourself, navigating conflict, or building trust. Share strategies, real-life experiences, and what’s worked (or hasn’t) in high-stakes moments. - Building a Personal Brand That Works
Your personal brand is more than a buzzword—it’s how you show up and are remembered. Discuss how to define your voice, increase visibility, and build a reputation that reflects your strengths and goals. - Owning Your Value at the Table
Most professionals experience moments of self-doubt—but how do you move through them and still show up with confidence? Share tactics for reframing your mindset, speaking up, and owning your expertise
Work/Life Balance
- Making Work and Life Work
Balance isn’t always 50/50. Talk about how priorities shift over time, what “balance” really looks like in different seasons, and the systems or boundaries that help make it sustainable.
Mentorship
- Mentorship That Moves You Forward
Great mentorship can shape careers—but it doesn’t always look traditional. Explore how to find the right mentors, be a great mentee, and recognize unexpected relationships that influence your growth.
