They spoke about

· Discussion about women AND diversity in workforce
· importance of multi lingual ability for jobs & in general.
Teens that participated were welcomed to contact presenters with future questions & even schedule a tour of different companies. Our head counselor was able to attend for a short time & was really impressed with the information shared with the young women.
Special thanks to our panelists who made this day so special for the girls!
