Are you interested in becoming a principal or partner at your firm, but you’re not sure what the pathway to the role is, what you need to do to be qualified, or how to be chosen?
Whether you’re in a large firm with a formal process or firm that operates like the Wild West – with no clear advancement process – in this training, you will learn the five steps any woman can take to become a principal at her firm.
You’ll learn how to position yourself for principal or partner and how to create a step-by-step promotion plan to the role (with buy-in from your leadership!) You’ll learn about the “unwritten rules of advancement” that exist in every organization – and how to uncover them in yours.
If you want more from your career, but have wondered how to get there…and also want to ensure being a principal or partner is compatible with your life outside of work, this session is for you!
