ABOUT FILIPINAS IN MOTION: PEER CIRCLES
These are small discussion groups of Filipina women in similar fields
and professional areas of expertise. Each group has a Peer Discussion
Leader who will facilitate the flow of ideas and ensure participant
sharing and empowerment. Topics will cover career strategies, real-life
stories (triumphs, struggles, accomplishments), an insider's perspective
on how Filipinas navigate their unique workplaces, and best practices
on how to "arrive, survive, and thrive" in the world of work. These
small discussion circles will provide an environment to restart thought
processes and expand thinking. Registered summit attendees can join any
Peer Circle of their choice.
