Item Description

When we talk about girl power, we mean it. This is an incredible opportunity for two Hamlin girls to experience female leadership up close and personal. We've gathered 13 of the most influential female entrepreneurs and leaders in the Bay Area (many of whom are Hamlin moms) from a wide variety of industries and fields: technology, fashion, the arts, e-commerce, publishing, media, law, healthcare, and more. The two lucky Hamlin girls will select two leaders from this illustrious group to shadow for a half-day, where they will experience first-hand the inner workings of their chosen industry and what it takes to be a successful female leader. Afterwards, they will enjoy lunch and engaging conversation with their selected entrepreneur. This is truly an unforgettable once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for any Hamlin girl.
