BEAT Workshop: Advocating for Yourself at Work (online)
Join us for a workshop on June 13th that will help you understand your value, and teach you how to communicate what you need to be successful in your role.

Understanding your non-negotiables & where you do, and don't, have room for flexibility.
Setting the stage for a positive & productive conversation that serves you and your employer.
Communicating your value clearly and concisely.
Identifying and prioritizing key elements that will make you more successful in your role.
