RECAP: Expecting at Work Panel Series #1 Now Available on YouTube
“Expecting at Work”, organized by women at Salesforce, was opened to members of the various women’s network in Silicon Valley, including LinkedIn, Uber, Facebook, Google and Harvard Business School Alumnae Circles. The January 24 event attracted a crowd of 200 to learn about various career journeys through pregnant-and-working stories shared by four panelists, all HBS alumnae.
The interactive discussion with panelists had some surprising insights, with the main take-away being that careers can move upward and onward during pregnancy, maternity leaves, and afterwards. This was a great opportunity for attendees to learn, support and inspire one another in our career journeys.
Here’s a look at the success of the day.
