WIB-Capital Region: Sponsor Spotlight Series –
Your Worthy Career
Join us for a workshop with Melissa Lawrence, founder of Your Worthy Career, a career and leadership coaching company for women in Pharma/Biotech. Melissa will share the five mistakes she sees people make when planning their careers and what to do instead so you can drive your career in the right direction. You’ll also hear real case studies of women in the industry who have followed this advice to create the career they want, from landing new jobs, having roles created for them, and receiving promotions.
Typical career advice is often outdated and generic. It also fails to address the “hidden” opportunities that exist in the Pharma/Biotech industry. To navigate your career successfully in the industry and to have a career you are truly passionate about, you need a different approach. Join us for this innovative take on career development.
