In 18th century France, salons were gatherings, usually hosted by women, where people came together to discuss literature, politics, philosophy, or current events.
In AWWEE's salon events, we come together via Zoom to discuss a topic. There will be no formal agenda or presentation during our gatherings. The event is an opportunity to share our experiences and reactions, hear each other's perspectives, and discuss ideas, so we leave the event with a deeper understanding than we started with.
For this salon event, we’ll be discussing the February 14, 2023, article by Rosalind Chow published in the Harvard Business Review, Don’t Just Sponsor Women and People of Color - Defend Them.
This discussion follows the first salon on March 14, 2023, where we discuss the another article by Rosalind Chow published in the Harvard Business Review, Don't Just Mentor Women and People of Color. Sponsor Them. Participation in the first salon is not required.
