Preconference Workshop
This year’s newcomers class will be an exciting opportunity for participants to learn from leaders in CFR, network with their peers, and discuss their work, the field, and the future. This panel will encompass the entire timeline of a CFR career path from being a newcomer, building relationships—both external and internal—to how to think about your career trajectory. The panelists represent all facets of CFR leadership and will lead a lively discussion on what brought them to this work, what they love about it, and how they built their careers. We will also share how this field can prepare you for exciting other career opportunities within and without CFR.
