Networking Round Table Discussion Resources
Thanks to everyone who came to the roundtable discussion on networking and it plays different roles in the careers of men vs. women.
A lot of interesting points were raised by those who joined us, including Lauren Celano of Propel Careers, Deborah Belle and her Grad student Amanda Gibson (who conducted a recent study on networking among BU grad students) and Beverly A. Brown, director of development for both the Center for Global Health & Development (CGHD) and the Office of Technology Development (OTD) at Boston University.
