Monday, August 28

What if
alternative paths to personal and workplace advancement proved more
beneficial over the long run? In this session learners will examine how they
define success, understand how traditional expectations and established norms
in graduate school and society can impose accidental barriers, and learn ways
to navigate grad school and life “differently”. Let’s debunk the myth of
being "self-made" and learn how to leverage MAPS (Mentors, Allies,
Partners, and Sponsors) for strategic advancement. Break free from
traditional measures of success and navigate graduate school with the support
you need while building a powerful personal brand. Attend this session if you
are ready to move beyond the grade! Reception to follow.
