Research has shown that women tend to negotiate more assertively for others, such as their employees, than they do for themselves. Join us for this session on May 29 at 1 p.m. ET as Heather Stalvey, vice president of human resources and administration at Environmental Solutions Group, discusses how we can become our own biggest advocates at every stage of our lives. Please contact Katie Evans at [email protected] if you have not received an email invite for this event.
