Back to the Office - Expert Q&A

Join us for an informal discussion -with a Live Q&A with our expert panel- about our sentiment on returning to the office and how we can advocate for ourselves. What do we need in our work-life balance?  How can we integrate flex schedules into this new, post-pandemic work environment?  Show up, share or just listen as we talk about our concerns, hopes and goals with other Soapbox Moms and experts in the industry. Margaret Hinch, Founder / CEO at Thought Lens; Sandra Lima, Director of Workspace Experience at Liquid Arcade; and Liliana Clough, Human Resource Director @ Southern California Institute of Architecture will be on hand to offer some valid, experience based advice.
