Own Your Story: Crafting Your Professional Identity

Join the PA ACE Women’s Network for a luncheon focused on how to craft—and communicate—your professional brand. Proven leaders in higher education will share practical strategies to clarify your strengths, tell your story with confidence, and align your brand with the roles and impact you want next. After the talk, rotate through table-top networking discussions to workshop your brand statement, swap LinkedIn tips, and make connections across institutions.

You’ll leave with:

  • A draft brand statement you can use in bios, interviews, and intros

  • A LinkedIn refresh checklist and messaging prompts

  • New contacts and next steps for growing your influence

Who should attend: Emerging and established women leaders across higher education—faculty, staff, administrators, and allies.
