It's Important for Women to Connect with Other Women

With our third Women Entrepreneurs Boot Camp (WEB) less than a week away, Shawn Achor’s article in HBR describes his research validating the importance of women connecting with other women. Studying women who attended conferences for women, Achor discovered:

• in the year after connecting with peers at the conferences, the likelihood of receiving a promotion doubled, and
• attendees had triple the likelihood of a 10% + pay increase

There is power in connection. We are excited about bringing together 21 amazing female founders and a fabulous faculty at WEB on April 30, and we cannot wait to see what comes from the relationships built and the ideas exchanged. Follow along on social media at #dwtWEB. And, check out Achor's article for what we can learn from lightning bugs.
