A Vision of Our Future Selves

Asian Women Leadership Network (AWLN) celebrates the 10th year of its founding at the Working Mother Media Multicultural Women's Conference. Steadfast in its mission to promote the career development and advancement of Asian women professionals, AWLN once again convenes women for an intimate exploration of our current and future selves. Who are we at home? Who are we at work?

Through an interactive exercise facilitated by Janice Won and Iris Chau, participants envision their ideal and desired states of well-being and impact. When are we happiest? Most impactful? Women will identify some immediate steps that advance them toward their goals, and are destined to meet supportive women to add to their personal and professional networks.
