Final Chance to Join Us – She-Wolves Virtual Book Club
Our history in finance is surprisingly recent, and the women who blazed the trail faced obstacles we can barely imagine. She-Wolves: The Untold Story of Women on Wall Street by Paula Breen tells their remarkable stories—and reminds us how far we’ve come and how much work remains.
We’re thinking about hosting a virtual book club to discuss She-Wolves and share our own experiences navigating finance. Would you join us – complete this short survey and let us know.
