Subject: Women Leading Women Invitation Description: Join us from 5 to 6 p.m. to learn about one of the fastest-growing non-traditional career fields for women: the defense industry. The discussion will be moderated by women leaders, including UMD alumnae, from Textron Inc., a multi-industry company known globally for brands such as Beechcraft, Bell Helicopter, Cessna and E-Z-GO. Following the Fireside Chat, mingle with panelists over refreshments and join other UMD students and alumnae for the fifth annual Women Leading Women event, a moderated forum that showcases our fearless female Terp trailblazers in business and celebrates women from the classroom to the boardroom. Meet role models, hear their inspirational stories and engage in meaningful dialogue on what it means to be a female executive in non-traditional career fields. A networking reception with light refreshments immediately follows this free event.
