Do you want to put your career on rocket fuel and dial in work-life balance?
UPLIFT is an intimate, network-building conference for women building vibrant careers in development.
June 6-7, 2019 at the Kimpton Hotel Palomar in Phoenix, AZ.
Come for two days of doors-closed, candid conversation to help ambitious women
* Connect with like-minded colleagues and find new mentors
* Identify concrete ways to achieve work/life balance and stay excited
* Map a fantastic, satisfying career in development
* Leave with a 90-day action plan to jump-start new levels of achievement
This is not a conference to just sit and listen – this is two amazing days outside your busy day-to-day to think big, get creative, make ambitious plans, and talk it out with other women in the trenches.
Every hour brings new tactical tools and open table conversations. By Friday evening, every participant will have talked with, taught, and learned from one another.
We are creating a community of UPLIFT.
Our keynote speaker, Jennifer Palmieri, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Dear Madam President, will make us laugh, maybe tear up just a little, and will definitely inspire us to show up authentically and entirely for our best work.
