In fact\, it is often said that “People do not leave bad jobs; they leave bad managers.” We have all heard stories about the impact of toxic and/or ineffective bosses. \nPerhaps less frequently discussed are great bosses. What makes a boss extraordinary? How do talented managers boost their team member’s careers\, confidence\, and/or opportunities? How can you identify one of these unicorns when you have the opportunity to select a future manager? In the absence of a supportive manager\, how can you leverage other relationships to enable your career growth? The panelists will address these questions and more as they reflect on formative experiences in their own careers. The event will be moderated by Laurie Bohn\, a leadership development professional\, founder of TalentVivo and WEST Advisory Board member. \nWhether you seek perspective on your current environment\, want to understand what to look for in a future manager\, or you are looking to refine your leadership philosophy\, we hope you’ll join WEST on April 26th for this thought-provoking discussion. \nPanelists Include:\n– Heike Keilhack\, CSO\, Ribon Therapeutics\n– Kristine McKinney\, Executive Director\, Moderna Genomics\n– Mariana Nacht\, CSO\, Logic Bio URL:https://newiee.org/event/wests-career-growth-spotlight-how-a-great-manager-can-support-your-career-aspirations/ CATEGORIES:Friends of NEWIEE ORGANIZER;CN="Women in the Enterprise of Science & Techology (WEST)":MAILTO:info@WESTorg.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20220413T181500 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20220413T194500 DTSTAMP:20260624T140724 CREATED:20220315T010847Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220315T010847Z UID:10000103-1649873700-1649879100@newiee.org SUMMARY:WEST's Career Possibilities Panel & Speed Networking: Portfolio Strategy\, Business Development\, Tech Transfer DESCRIPTION:In the world of business\, careers are no longer linear or predictable.

All eyes are on you and only you.
