Let's face it. PEWIN members aren't ones to rest on their laurels. While it might appear that many of us have reached our personal and professional pinnacles, most of us can't help but get energized thinking about that next climb. In this first Circle Session, UNC award-winning professor and author Alison Fragale will take us on an exploration which examines our unique definitions of success, and how we can purposefully redefine ourselves - again and again - over the course of our lives.

CIO Roundtable

Its time to talk shop -- and our GP and LP-Only lunches allow our members to break bread with peers and discuss issues near and dear to their everyday leadership responsibilities. Our unstructured time will allow you to connect and reconnect with colleagues as you fuel up for an inspiring afternoon.

Checking Your Vitals: Recipes for Mental Wellness
With countless responsibilities resting on our shoulders, PEWIN members often put our own mental wellness last on our long list of to-dos. Alison Fragale returns to lead our second Circle Session which will encourage us to be mindful of our personal "vitals" and contribute our best life hacks, activities and resources to a collective PEWIN cookbook of mental wellness "recipes."
