Five Key Strategies for Getting What You Want in Your Career

Presenter: Lisa Gates

As women, we know we need to build more competence and confidence in negotiation and everyday problem-solving.

In this webinar, Lisa Gates, co-founder of She Negotiates, will discuss the five key strategies for getting what you want in your career, while not changing a single thing about who you are, and addressing the age-old double binds like:
