On Wednesday, March 11th, 2015 Coach Nadine Bannerman, graduate of the Harvard Negotiations Program of Instruction for Lawyers will focus on how women can become expert negotiators in their workplaces to narrow the wage gap. Remember to wear red at the office on March 18 to acknowledge the gap and show your support for Equal Pay. Together we can narrow the gender wage gap to line up with peer countries.
