In honor of the 6th Annual Columbia Business School’s Women’s Week, we are delighted to host an evening with Carol Fishman Cohen, the CEO and co-founder of iRelaunch www.iRelaunch.com.
This event is for women looking for concrete ways to return to the workforce after a long hiatus, and also for those considering leaving the workplace for a period of time. We expect an engaging and thought-provoking conversation during this intimate gathering.
We are honored Carol has accepted our invitation to speak to our Club. iRelaunch works with employers to create programs for hiring professionals returning to work after a career break, and provides strategies for relaunching individuals to resume their careers.
