Discovering Your Leadership Journey

Leadership Matters – Tuesday, March 23, 6:30 PM

Please invite potential members and/or other Rotarians that you know.

Speaker:  Christine Marquez-Hudson

VP of University Advancement & Executive Director of the MSU Denver Foundation

Discovering Your Leadership Journey

Every ​leadership journey has its inflection points—moments where you have the chance to shine or shy away, lean in or back off, follow your heart or listen to what others think you should do. These moments teach us many lessons and sometimes the greatest mistakes are the ones that educate the most.

In this conversation with Christine Marquez Hudson, you will hear about lessons learned during her own journey but also explore your own. Participants will have the chance to get to know their fellow Rotary members as well and hear about their wise choices and those they wish they’d done differently.

Whether you are beginning your career journey or are deep into life’s lessons, this session with Marquez-Hudson, a native of the Western Slope, will be an opportunity for learning and reflection.
