Mentorship Program

We saw a need to create one-on-one mentoring opportunities to support emerging leaders throughout Southern Oregon. By creating in-person partnerships with qualified mentors, our mentees further their leadership skills and advance in their corporate or entrepreneurial careers.

Sponsorships

Our sponsors have helped make the WLC conference the must-attend event for emerging and established leaders throughout Oregon and Northern California. You and your business can be a part of our conference, workshops, and ongoing education for those who want to develop their leadership skills and advance their careers
