expense as stipend or learning and development

Wow! Its clear women need feedback, coaching, and advice on small and big decisions. We’ve had so many of you reach out sharing instances where this would have come handy for you on the homefront and workfront. Last week our Motherboard Celinda Farias Appleby, Director of Global Talent Attraction at VISA, ex. Nike, Oracle, and HP. Celinda conducted a 1:1 Motherboard session with a mom who needed feedback on her career trajectory, job hunt, and personal brand positioning. As you can imagine, it was amazing! For only $100, this woman had access to an executive mom who has navigated challenges and has developed various framework to succeed as a mother and professional. This is the power of the Motherboard.

Can’t afford it? Consider expensing the cost to your company as a stipend, learning and development, or professional development. We cannot build a successful career without support. Please reach out to me at any time if you need support in expensing your sessions.
