The CAREER Forum

This is going to be Fun! Free!

THE DETAILS:

On Thursday, Oct. 1, at 6pm, THE CiTY FORUM is partnering with the Missouri History Museum to present:

"The CAREER Forum"

- A FREE, 100-min. town hall forum about counteracting "-isms" (subtle/overt demographic differences) in our work environments (i.e. Age-ism, sexism, discrimination based on sexuality, racism, and other "-isms"). In a talk-show-like format, we will discuss several scenarios in which demographic differences can cause career difficulties. The audience and a small panel of experts will then collectively decide the appropriate response. This forum will be preceded by a brief networking session.
