Leading and Excelling as a Young Professional on
Wednesday, November 10, 7-8:15 p.m.

Young professionals aren't typically thought of as leaders in the workplace. They’re usually near the bottom of the office hierarchy and lack experience and extensive skills, and many are hesitant to assume a leadership role. However, studies show that leaders in the workplace — regardless of age — enjoy lower levels of unemployment, higher salaries and more opportunities for advancement. So, join us to learn the steps you can take to become a successful young leader in the workplace.

Panelists include:
Jennifer DeMatteis ’02, Vice President, Healthcare Communications, GCI Health

Lisa K. Fund '05, Senior Vice President, Goldman Sachs

Christopher Onuorah Jr. '11, Senior Product Manager, Intapp

Christopher Wyatt ’05, Partnerships Manager, Alto Pharmacy

Moderator: Gina Valentino ’14, Editor, Westchester Home & Associate Editor, Westchester Magazine/914INC.
