Wayne State Alumni Association is offering exclusive access to a range of online webinars. Join us for the next webinar, Alumni Webinar Series: "How Working Mothers Can Thrive-And Not Just Survive"

Are you feeling stressed at work and home because you’re a hard-working mother with kids? Welcome to a crowded club! For the first time in American history, a significant number of mothers are heading major corporations and have made gains throughout executive suites. Yet these “Power Moms” still struggle to balance their management responsibilities while raising children. But don’t despair! Without drowning in working mother guilt, you can flourish on both fronts in the post-pandemic world. In this enlightening webinar, Joann S. Lublin, author, and award-winning journalist will offer various coping tactics based on her book, Power Moms: How Executive Mothers Navigate Work and Life.
