330 University Dr NE
New Philadelphia, Ohio, United States
The Women’s Success Series brings together women of all ages who seek better lives, professionally and personally. The series is intended to be a catalyst for women to think differently about success, themselves, and to think differently about how they live, work and play in Tuscarawas County. During each breakfast session, participants will hear from a dynamic woman who has enjoyed a measure of success right here in Tuscarawas County. Prior to each session, participants will have a book to read or a TED Talk to view that will enrich a discussion designed to move them to the next level in life.
