Be Part of The Women@Work Community
Women@Work is, first and foremost, an ever growing network of mid to senior level current and returning professional women. Our current community of more than 5,000 women extends across the United States into Canada—and as far as Europe, Australia, South Africa and the United Arab Emirates.
You can be an active participant in this community online, on the phone or in person. Our online Networking Forum gives you the opportunity to network with like-minded women anytime of the day or night, and you can join in many different work-life discussions through the Women@Work blogs.
From your home or office you can participate in a wide variety of thought-provoking Inspiration Forums via conference call. To accommodate your busy schedule, it’s possible to schedule (at industry standard rates) career counseling or resume writing sessions with our senior team or Women@Work Affiliates who can meet with you in person or hold productive sessions via telephone and email.
Women@Work networking groups are also growing virtually around the world—giving women the chance to connect in person with other women who are navigating similar life phases and share professional interests.
Meet the Women@Work Bloggers!
Women@Work introduces six women who are pursuing work opportunities at all of life’s ages and stages. Check in each week to see what they are thinking, planning, seeing and hearing as they try to balance work and life.
