“Women in Business” Event Paves Way for Future Study
Haejin Kim, assistant professor of management, organized an event late in
the fall semester focused on the opportunities and challenges women face as
leaders in the business world. To make the points salient for the 70

Advisory Board who have achieved great things in their careers as small
business owners and high-level managers. The response was astounding, and

future. Yet, the panel members’ insights on management and communication

of both sexes.
