Breakout sessions:

  • “Learn how to tell your story”  -  Robert Wilson, Story Telling Expert and Author of the Un-Comfort Zone, will provide great insight on how to tell your story and stand out from the rest in an interview.
  • “Negotiate Pay” – Pam Brown from Emory will give great direction on how to handle this sticky subject.

Lunch:
Moe’s Southwest Grill will provide some tasty fare for lunch.  You will be able to choose 1 of the following:

10 Year Panel:
“Marketing” can be so broad.  We have pulled together a panel of successful professionals (all under or around 30) from both the business marketing side and agency side to share their experiences about their first 10 years in the “real world.”   Maybe listening to them can help you choose a path?

Closing Speaker IBM- “The Global CMO”
