I’m not sure about you, but for me, 2025 so far has been a wild whirlwind of change, challenges and new ideas. However, with change comes opportunity. As we step into the second half of the year, it’s an ideal time to reflect on the goals and resolutions we set for ourselves in our professional lives. How are you progressing with your aspirations for 2025?

Would you still like to sharpen your skills, network more, or perhaps find a new opportunity? Then look no further than Women Leading Travel & Hospitality! We have so many opportunities for you to network and grow as we round out the year:

  • Women Leading Travel & Hospitality Roundtables are regional half-day events that offer networking and education. Attendees can make valuable connections with peers, learn from industry experts, participate in engaging content discussions, and have some fun in the process. You’ll leave Roundtable events with fresh ideas and new contacts that can help springboard your career and company’s success. Our next roundtables are taking place in New York (Oct. 27), Chicago (Nov. 12) and Miami (Dec. 2).
  • Grab a drink or bite to eat with travel and hospitality industry leaders local to your area by attending a Regional Meetup. These casual in-person meetups, which are led by local members who serve as a volunteer ambassadors, provide an excellent opportunity for members and nonmembers alike to share experiences, exchange ideas, and build relationships.
