Joplin Bold Women’s Summit creating lasting community impact
The Bold Women’s Summit on Tuesday November 18th, aims to fill a local gap by blending personal and professional development for women in the Joplin area, creating lasting community impact.
It will be held at James River Church in Joplin.
Lauren Hall from the Joplin Chamber of Commerce told Newstalk KZRG:
“It’s a full day interactive summit. We will have three keynote speakers. We’ll have nine different breakout sessions that women can choose from. They’re all women led. All topics are relevant for women, women in leadership, advocacy and change.”
The event is a full-day interactive summit featuring three keynote speakers and nine breakout sessions, all led by women and covering leadership, advocacy, and holistic health topics.
This conference is designed to engage women at all life stages, from stay-at-home moms returning to work to retired women offering mentorship, aiming to foster meaningful connections and opportunity sharing.
The summit tackles both personal growth and professional challenges, recognizing the complexity of women’s roles at work and home and promoting harmony rather than balance.
Speaker Lineup and Breakout Sessions
The event features expert speakers who provide actionable insights on leadership, emotional health, and career challenges.
Dr. Rachel Oblon, an organizational leadership expert, will address identity and imposter syndrome, helping women overcome self-doubt in career decisions.
Alyssa Owsley of Lifework Talent will focus on emotional intelligence’s role in personal and workplace success.
Mo Holemann will present on ADHD, burnout, and energy management, promoting healthier work habits.
Breakout sessions include panels on legacy leadership, microaggressions, and practical topics like “the art of rejection” and holistic health strategies for busy moms.
The summit’s goal is to provide tangible takeaways that attendees can apply immediately to change their career paths or personal lives.
