    In a professional setting, words like “growth,” “career advancement,” and “opportunity” can be thrown around quite often, however, what do those words look like in action? How long does it typically take for your first promotion? How long does it take for a milestone opportunity? How do you recognize and capitalize on opportunities when they present themselves? Does mindset matter? These are a few of the burning topics which will be discussed at this event and we guarantee that no matter how far along you are in the industry, lessons can be drawn from experience.

    To foster a thoughtful discussion, we’ve assembled a panel of stellar lights in both the private and public sectors of the Orange County water community. Our panelists are all accomplished individuals within their careers, with their best years yet to come. Take this event as an opportunity to glean professional insight, ask your burning questions, and network with peers in the industry!

    This Emerging Professionals events is intended
    for water industry professionals with 0 to 10 years experience.
    Please share this message with those in your office
    who would most benefit from this event.

    This is an event you don’t want to miss, so bring some friends, bring an appetite, bring your questions, and bring an ear ready to listen. Whether you work in the public or private sector, this event is designed to benefit career-minded individuals from every department. We look forward to hosting our fellow Emerging Professionals.
