Upcoming Fall Season & An Opportunity for TGGD Members

The last few weeks of summer mean we're gearing up for an amazing new season of Toronto Girl Geek Dinners!

I'm very excited to be working with a stellar group of organizers for the upcoming season of events. We have TGGD co-founders Maggie Fox and Jenny Bullough on board. We're pleased that Heather Leson has joined us. Heather was a huge help with our events in the Spring.

The organizers took some time this summer to look at where we're at with TGGD and how we can best meet and exceed the expectations of our amazing members. We are making one change to our meeting sign up process. We've decided to charge a nominal fee (around $10) when people reserve for one of our TGGD events. This should help us cut down on no-shows and make sure that we maximize the positive experience of our TGGD events for participants and sponsors.

Oh, and save September 29 for the next TGGD. Event details are in the works.

Leadership Development Opportunity for TGGD Members

We have a late summer treat for you! Members of TGGD get $75 off the fee to attend the September 18, 2009 Poised for Leadership coaching workshop. To qualify for this special TGGD, please write the code "TGGD" on your registration form.

This extraordinary workshop is designed for high achieving professional women, early to mid career, who want to fast track their transition into leadership roles.

Through a combination of case-studies, self-assessment tools and small group discussions, you will learn proven strategies for adding value to your organization, gaining recognition and credibility, communicating with confidence and authority, establishing your brand as a leader, expanding your sphere of influence, and accelerating your career development. Every participant will leave with a personal action plan for breaking into a leadership position. Are you ready to explore your leadership potential?
