WAUSAU – A conference for women entrepreneurs, founders and trailblazers from every sector will be offered at the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point at Wausau and online at the end of the month.
“From Big Ideas to Big Impact: Moving Your Adventures Forward,” a Women Trailblazers and Entrepreneurs Conference, will be held from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Oct. 27.
The conference offers a keynote speaker and breakout sessions to help women move forward by providing tools and examples of women leading their big ideas into big impacts. It is for women who may be starting a new career, volunteer opportunity, organization or idea.
The keynote speaker is Liz Nilsen of the Agile Strategy Lab and co-author of the award-winning 2019 book “Strategic Doing: Ten Skills for Agile Leadership.” Nilsen teaches innovation and collaboration to business, university and community groups. She will share interactive skill-building exercises and stories of inspirational women from across the country to show how women can move into action after launching a new venture or meeting an obstacle.
