On Monday, Feb. 24, UNC Greensboro hosted the Triad Business Journal’s annual Bizwomen Mentoring Monday networking event.

Part of a national initiative facilitated by American City Business Journals, the event provides an opportunity for young professionals and students to learn from industry leaders across the Triad.

More than 200 professionals and students participated in the event, which included roundtable discussions on issues related to women in the workplace and one-on-one “speed mentoring” sessions. 

Provost Dana Dunn made opening remarks to kick off the event. Five UNCG faculty and staff members participated as mentors: Dr. Karen Bull, Division of Online Learning; Mary Lesa Pegg, Office of Alumni Relations; Dr. Terri Shelton, Office of Research and Engagement; Dr. Dianne Welsh, Bryan School of Business and Economics; and Natasha Williams, University Communications.
