The Greater Brookfield Chamber of Commerce will host Celebrating Women in Business Luncheon on Thursday, October 3, 2024, at Milwaukee Marriott West, W231 N1600 Corporate Court, Waukesha, Wis. 53186. This is a rare opportunity for non-chamber members to attend the popular luncheon series.

This year’s topic is “Benefits of a Personal Board.” A panel of women, who are all at different stages of their journey, will discuss why a personal board is important, how to build your personal board – what are the roles they play. And, how to develop and evolve your personal board over time.

Panelists are Kelly Ebbole, owner/realtor of Strategic Focus Realty; Bridget Fritz, business development manager at Moore Construction Services; and Karen Long, associate vice president at Grumman/Butkus Associates. Moderator is Melanie Stuber, founder and CEO of Cultivate and Thrive, LLC.

Carol White, president & CEO of GBCC, said, “This concept has come up in several conversations in recent years. The more it was discussed, the more questions I heard about who should be on your board, how do you ask people to help you and what role do they play. We felt our annual Celebrating Women in Business program was the perfect opportunity to answer these questions and support women in their careers.”
