Career Enhancement Series Event — Washington DC

Lessons of leadership — from home to work
Multi-tasking, interpersonal skills, negotiation, integrity, fair play

We all have opinions about what makes for effective parenting. How does this translate to the business word? It's simple. Management experts and trainers are now teaching the very same "people skills" that are recommended in popular parenting books. Ann Crittenden, author of "If You've Raised Kids, You Can Manage Anything," will discuss how these skills are transferable from home to the workplace.

Drawing on her own experience and interviews with nearly 100 prominent parents, Crittenden brings a wealth of knowledge, management tips and positive, real-life stories exploring how corporate culture has begun to recognize the valuable lessons of raising children and apply them to create effective work environments. Whether you're a parent or not, you won't want to miss learning these lessons of leadership.

You'll also have opportunities to:

  • Build relationships that will help you advance professionally and personally
  • Learn the latest workplace trends and discuss key topics
  • Make valuable career connections with fellow alumni
