WeareWISE Details
WeareWISE is a one year leadership development program founded in 2015 by Lisa Issroff and the Issroff Family Foundation to provide smart, young women working in the social enterprise space with access to professional and personal growth opportunities. The program is hosted at the Issroff Family Foundation's offices in Manhattan's Financial District.Over the course of the yearlong program, WeareWISE members attend monthly peer-led learning circles Conversations, with experienced women leaders to discuss additional topics as well as to participate in informal WeareWISE social gatherings.that cover a variety of topics selected by discussion leaders. These sessions are typically two hours in length. Topics range, but are always in the spirit of sharing best practices for personal evolution and professional success. Items like metrics, networking, negotiating pay and work-life balance have previously been discussed in the group. In addition to monthly learning circles, both current and alumni WeareWISE members are invited to attend WeareWISE's quarterly speaker series, Community Conversation.
