Connecting Women Professionals Bringing Different Perspectives to the Table |
|
Connect with Others One-on-OneYou can be connected with someone in your same or different role or you can be connected with a more experienced professional to work through a specific goal or professional challenge. Think of things you might like to learn such as Budget Creation, Project Management, Conference Proposal Development, Writing in a Publication, Resume Review, etc. As you learn and develop your own leadership style, Career Connections can also be a resource to discuss workplace scenarios. Or, you may need some encouragement as you navigate a specific professional challenge or goal. No matter your need, Career Connections may have your perfect match. This is a members-only benefit and a great way to meet new colleagues and share/learn together.

WEBINARSInterested in learning skills online from approachable experts? If so, our webinars are for you! We offer 3-4 one hour webinars every year tailored to the skills you want most. We aim to meet you where you are, and based on the role of international educators, we know that it is not always convenient to meet in person. These webinars allow you to watch and learn in the comfort of your own office or home. The webinars will follow our themes and we will produce the best content possible with a goal of giving you take-away learning to apply to your daily work. Anyone can view webinars for a nominal fee and members of the League will have access to the webinars for free. Consider membership in the League as a great investment in training that lasts for a year with even richer and more meaningful connections on top of the content. Our upcoming webinars are always listed on the League's Events page of the site, so be sure to visit that page for more information! Joan from IES Abroad said this about a recent webinar: "Thank you Global Leadership League for the opportunity to attend the webinar "Be a Hybrid Professional - Rethink what you really do" given by Sarabeth Berk. I found it to be thought-provoking and very encouraging. Sarabeth was an articulate presenter, and I always appreciate your comments as a participant. To a person working in a higher ed organization, who recently changed jobs within the same, I had not considered my hybrid-ness, and the value that brings to my new role, particularly at those intersection points. I will be taking a closer look and analyzing those aspects of my contributions as I look to enhance my role going forward."
