Schedule:
Session One (Feb. 11): Recognize and reframe questions that prevent buy-in for new ideas.

Session Three (April 1): Gain meaningful market traction to silence naysayers
It’s easy to cast doubt on the potential of a new idea when it’s still on the drawing board. To quiet detractors and build confidence, women should focus on gaining market traction – that is, quantitative evidence of market demand – which provides the ultimate proof that an idea has merit. Presented by Maureen Rinkunas.

Session Five (June 10): Telling your story to invite new customers, champions, and stakeholders to join the journey
