Hello GWIL friends!
Can you join us at the upcoming Good Leadership Breakfast (GLB) on October 20 FOR FREE? GWIL is buying. Event details below. We've got 5 tickets to give away. PM me for your ticket.

Here's the backstory:
At every GLB they pass around the "Bucket of Good Will" where attendees can donate. Everyone's name goes into a drawing and the winner gets to donate the proceeds to the charity of their choice.

Not able to come? Suggest another leadership learning opportunity. We'd love to gather our favorite women to network and explore ways to fulfill our mission.
You belong in GWIL. How can we help?

Women leaders — already in short supply — are leaving their companies at rates not seen in years, a new report says. For every woman at the director level who gets promoted, two women directors leave.
