Description

Join community and business leaders at the Greater Waco Chamber's annual Leading Waco Women spring workshop. This can't-miss event will provide practical takeaways to empower you on your leadership journey and impact the women in your sphere of influence. 

We will have a keynote address, and two sessions of breakouts, with several choices of topics from which to choose.

Because of the nature of the breakout sessions, you may purchase packages of tickets, but you won't necessarily be able to sit together for the full event.

We'll enjoy tasty snacks from our host, the beautiful Cambria Hotel. Make plans to attend, and invite your friends, co-workers, mentors, mentees, and daughters to join you!

Doors open at 1:00 for networking. Program will begin at 1:30.

Stay after to enjoy Networking Hour at the BLVD Steakhouse!
