SuperHERoes: Making “Stronger Together” a Reality at Work

Pillar’s Founder & CEO, Cindy Joyce, will be joining forces with Tamara Gardner, owner of Boldly Branded, to speak at the upcoming Lean In Boston event.  The topic will be SuperHERoes: Making “Stronger Together” a Reality at Work

Event Details: 

It’s powerful when women connect and support each other – that’s a fact. However, the reality is that there are a lot of circumstances that act as a barrier to the “stronger together” mentality, especially at work.

Join us for an interactive and engaging discussion on:

  • What gets in the way of women supporting each other in the workplace
  • How to be a supporter, not a competitor even in a “vulture culture”
  • Strategies to build a personal “SuperHERro” network of all ages you can lean on and contribute to
  • Tips for how to stay meaningfully connected

Join us!

Elaine Varelas, Managing Partner, Keystone Partners on Career Boosters and Busters

We all share the desire to achieve career success, but as women the challenges that we face in the workforce are unique and the things that we need to do to drive career success are not always obvious. Additionally, many of us do things to derail our career and we don’t even know it. In this interactive session, Elaine Varelas will review the top career boosters and busters and show you how to avoid these insidious career derailers, while making changes (big and small) that will boost your career to the next level.

Elaine Varelas, Managing Partner of Keystone Partners, has over 20 years experience in career consulting and coaching development, and has worked with numerous executive management teams to improve organizational effectiveness. She has expertise in successfully resolving complex career management issues, including workforce planning, redeployment and multi-site restructurings.
