Get ready to learn how to level up your leadership skills, drive business growth, and expand your network at the Women Standing Together Leadership Intensive. Here are the highlights from May 2024!

 
 

Join us for an empowering and inspiring Leadership Intensive exclusively for women! This in-person, full day event will take place at the University of Southern Maine, Abromson Community Center on May 13, 2025.

Commit to your personal growth as you spend the day participating in workshops specifically designed to enhance your leadership skills so you can walk away with actionable tips to be a stronger leader, maximize your impact, and drive business growth.

Over lunch, you will be matched with senior women in business in small group settings to allow for candid conversations about career development, business development, and professional growth. These conversations will pave the way for long lasting mentorship relationships.

Then, you’ll finish the day with a networking reception to deepen your connections with other women leaders in your community.
