In the second week of school, I went to the first general interest meeting of Women In Business for my freshmen blog. I chose to attend the meeting held by this club because just as its name suggests, it’s for female students that have the interest to pursue careers in the field of business. My intended major is accounting, therefore, I would like to join some clubs that are relevant to business and gain experience starting from the first year of college. I went with a friend who also wanted to major in business. When we entered the room, there were already a lot of people that were the old members of the organization sitting or standing there and socializing with each other. It was a bit awkward for us because since we were new to the school and the clubs in the school, we didn’t really know how to participate in a general interest meeting comfortably like others. Many of the people attended were dressed professionally, which made the atmosphere totally different from what I was used to in high school club meetings. The goal of the club is to help women to be ready to work in the business world by offering mentorship programs and hosting events that can connect them to the professionals. During the meeting, we were introduced to different committees of the club, such as Pearls of Wisdom, Style Your Success, marketing, graphics, mentorship, and corporate relations. To become a member, one can either join a committee or become an inductee. The three key values of this organization are mentorship, which refers to their mentorship program, Athena, mobility, which is the opportunity that they provide to members to climb up the ladder of this organization and become board members, and meritocracy, which is the availability of opportunities to let the members develop leadership skills. I have learned a lot about the club’s structure and purpose after this meeting.
