Together, AWIS-WINS and AWIS-Boston bring you a virtual learning session with Mary Gentile, Ph.D., on Giving Voice to Values (GVV)—an innovative approach to values-driven leadership development in business education and the workplace. Rather than focusing on ethical analysis, the GVV curriculum focuses on ethical implementation and asks: What if I were going to act on my values? What would I say and do? How could I be most effective?

Join us on March 17 from 12 pm–1 pm EDT and learn to develop your leadership skills. (Zoom link shared upon registration).
