TBW is excited about offering a member’s only benefit. As women look for ways to build their management value, their careers depend on leadership skills more than ever before. Whether we have our own business, hold a management position or have a role as an informal influencer, our ability to get things done through people depend largely on our interaction skills.

Franklin/Covey has developed a program to address the leadership challenges of today. By focusing on four leadership competencies, participants can position themselves to understand the principles, evaluate confidential feedback and receive peer to peer coaching from seasoned TBW members.

TBW Fall Conference Recap

Special thanks to Sue Wallace, President of NETC TBW for her excellent recap of our Fall Conference.

The first event was a Friday night reception at the lovely Port Royal Hotel where we watched Miss Representation, a Sundance film festival feature film & discussion. On Saturday morning, we enjoyed a lively panel discussion about The Paycheck Fairness Act & whether it would strengthen the Equal Pay Act.

Leadership Is Our Responsibility

Closing our Women. Connected. Conference, TBW President Kendra Kinnison will share the stories of mentorship and friendship that changed the trajectory of her life and why we all have a responsibility to lead the next generation.

Paycheck Fairness From Every Perspective

For decades, research has shown that women’s paychecks still lag those of their male counterparts. As working women, we know the issue is a complex one. Instead of the usual cheering or jeering, our Women. Connected. Conference will feature a panel of experts discussing the recent Paycheck Fairness Act and the larger issue from every perspective.

Our panelists will include Tonya Beane Webber, Sharon Kollaja, and Nora Hadley.
