GCHS sophomore through senior girls with women business leaders pose in the lobby of ECTC

Learning to lead as women in today’s world. A group of GCHS sophomore through senior girls had the opportunity to participate in Junior Achievement’s Girl$ Experience. Hosted by JA, the event was sponsored by Tennessee Valley Authority and Warren RECC.

Students spent the day learning from other successful female business and community leaders with an emphasis on professional etiquette in a variety of settings, job applications and interview tips, dressing for success, budgeting, mentorship, goal setting, and more.

The JA Girl$ Experience encourages young women to strive for meaningful and dynamic leadership careers, to build valuable communication skills, and to foster strong confidence as it connects them with other generations to showcase educational and career opportunities in business.

It was a great day and thanks go to JA, TVA, and WRECC for providing this wonderful opportunity, which will hopefully continue and grow.
