March is Women's History Month and BAIA is excited to celebrate with a spotlight on Italian female professionals in the Bay Area. The fifth edition of this event is dedicated to the crucial elements of finding your voice and owning your story as foundational steps in your leadership development.
Join us for an engaging discussion on leadership as a journey of continuous growth and self-discovery. We'll engage in a thoughtful discussion aimed at helping you gain self-awareness, build confidence, and communicate your vision with authenticity. Hear from experienced leaders as they discuss how they found their unique voices and leveraged their stories to achieve success.
Attendees will have the opportunity to participate in a Q&A session, gaining direct insights and actionable advice from our expert panelists.
At the event, we will uphold our tradition of recognizing contributions to the community. Following in the footsteps of Romana Bracco, Amelia Antonucci, and Valentina Imbeni, this year we will honor Vitalba Gammicchia, Commercial Attaché and Vice Consul of the Consulate of Italy in San Francisco.
Don't miss this opportunity to learn and engage with industry experts. Get your ticket and secure your spot!
