ASPIRE is pleased to present the 2009 Asian American Women In Leadership (AAWIL) Conference on October 3rd, 2009 celebrating the theme of
Fearless Leadership: Taking Charge with Confidence
The 2009 AAWIL Conference aims to encourage fearlessness through empowerment. Asian American females often face cultural and societal pressures, thus fearing the exploration of all options before choosing a traditional path. Nevertheless, success and confidence can be attained by taking a fearless step forward. Speakers will share their experiences on how they pursued their dreams, broke ties with the cultural and societal pressures, and traveled different paths in life by fearlessly taking risks to achieve success, professionally and personally.
The 2009 Asian American Women in Leadership (AAWIL) Conference will:
- Build upon last year’s theme of “Balanced Leadership: Maintaining Perspective”
- Gather cross-generational Asian American women from across the continental US with diverse personal and professional backgrounds to share their experiences of “Fearless Leadership”
- Discuss the various aspects of continuous leadership development to make lasting, positive changes in our communities
- Celebrate and explore ways Asian American girls and women exercise “Fearless Leadership” by leveraging our personal unique identities and interest
