Hunter Industries has launched the Women’s Growth Forum (WGF), a collaborative virtual space created for women in the landscape industry where they can connect and share ideas with peers while developing skills to advance their careers.
“By creating the Women’s Growth Forum, we hope to provide opportunities for professional women to discuss thought leadership topics, develop critical skills, and network with like-minded colleagues so they can get the support they need to grow in their roles,” said Tessa Norton, director of marketing strategy with Hunter Industries.
Throughout the year, the WGF will offer free events designed to educate and inspire professional women to develop the knowledge and relationships necessary to grow in their field.
Kickoff event
The organization will host its inaugural event on April 6, a free virtual workshop titled The Power of Feedback. Attendees will learn how the often-underutilized tool of constructive feedback can be extremely effective for driving productive teams.
Attendees will also learn:
- Effective ways to craft and share constructive feedback
- Benefits of asking for feedback
- Tips for gracefully receiving feedback
- Strategies for overcoming feedback fears
Attendees will also get a chance to collaborate and connect with peers from across the industry during interactive breakouts. Two workshop sessions are available: a morning session from 11 a.m.–1 p.m. EST and an afternoon session: 6-8 p.m. EST. Attendees can also request a free “Power of Feedback” Kit by entering a promo code during registration.
