On Thursday, October 24, we brought together business leaders, innovators, and industry experts to share valuable insights to help Mississippi businesses adapt to today’s workforce. Our work has proven the power of family-friendly policies–when women succeed in the workplace, so do their families, and our state.
We are so grateful to our sponsors, participants, and supporters for making this year’s Thrive @ Work such a wonderful experience! Check out event highlights, information, and more below.
