ALUMNI PANEL SESSIONS


Three concurrent panel sessions run twice during the event and attendees select two:

Broadening the Scope of Impact: Social impact can happen in the non-profit, for-profit, and government arenas as well as in roles individuals hold outside of work. This panel will help students understand the scope of social impact.

Launching Your Social Impact Career: Panelists will talk about their experiences and recommendations for exploring and launching a career that has a social impact.

Re-mapping the Road to Social Impact - Navigating the Obstacles: Sometimes the best laid plans need adjusting. During this session, panelists will provide information on the obstacles, road blocks, and detours of their careers and share some life lessons learned along the way.
