In recent years, we’ve seen remarkable career trends in the Women Veterans population.
Recent studies show that Women Veterans have launched more businesses than any other cohort. They lead companies that hold spots on coveted lists like Fortune 500, Inc 5000’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies in America, and Entrepreneur’s 100 Brilliant Companies, to name a few. Women Veterans have founded nationally recognized nonprofits and initiated groundbreaking research. They’re best-selling authors and sought-after speakers.
At WVIF, we want to pave the way for more Women Veterans like you to be a part of this robust movement of professional leaders. The National Women Veterans Leadership and Diversity Conference (NWVLDC), the premiere event of our calendar year, is your opportunity for just that.
Power Your Career Growth with NWVLDC
The NWVLDC can be your opportunity to establish meaningful professional connections that will motivate you to grow as a leader in your career. Experience what it’s like to be immersed in an environment that focuses strategically on career empowerment for Women Veterans – and Women Veterans alone. You’ll meet leaders, connect with fellow Women Veterans, and participate in seminars and workshops that target topics and issues requested by Women Veterans.
Attending the NWVLDC will integrate you in a supportive community of likeminded women, and power your professional growth in 4 major ways:
1. Unparalleled Networking Opportunities
One of the greatest benefits of attending the NWVLDC is the chance to network with established leaders and peers. Throughout the 4-day event, you’ll enjoy multiple networking sessions, which are designed to foster meaningful connections. This relaxed time leads to important outcomes, giving you a platform to share experiences and insights, and identify opportunities for professional growth.
2. Empowering Speakers and Panelists
From keynote addresses, to panel discussions, to intimate “fireside chats,” the NWVLDC features nationally recognized Women Veteran leaders. These sessions are more than just inspirational talks; they are opportunities to hear firsthand from those who have successfully navigated the transition from military to civilian life and have become leaders in their fields. Their stories are relatable to yours, and you’ll find motivation and guidance to help you forge your own path.
3. Focused Workshops
The NWVLDC also engages you in more focused workshops for your professional development. The conference offers workshops focused on various aspects of professional growth, including goal setting, leadership development, branding, entering the entrepreneurial space, and more. The interactive format ensures that you’ll not only learn from experts but also from each other, fostering a collaborative learning environment. Overall, you’ll benefit from practical advice and wisdom, which will make a big difference in your professional growth.
4. A Supportive Community
Perhaps the most significant benefit of attending the NWVLDC is the sense of community. The conference brings together Women Veterans from across the country, creating a space where you can feel understood and supported. This shared community is a powerful source of encouragement, providing a network of sisters who understand your journey and are there to support you every step of the way. Many Women Veterans have attended multiple times, saying that the NWVLDC is like “coming home.”
