About this event

Gretchen Fierle, a former C-Suite executive and founder of 28HoursForMe, an immersive leadership skill-building retreat for aspiring women leaders, will join us for a dynamic and interactive workshop, using her two leadership workbooks, Fish Rot from the Head Down : Stories and Lessons about Leadership in 50 Words or Less. All attendees will receive her books, courtesy of WICE, and the program includes lunch. Look forward to three hours of collaborative and inspirational learning! Participants will receive their own copies of the workbooks to use during the training and take home to continue learning after the program.
