Women. Worth. Wealth ...

Brzezinski, a former CBS-TV news correspondent and daughter of foreign policy expert Zbigniew Brzezinkski, examines the role of women in the workplace in her book Knowing Your Value: Women, Money, and Getting What You're Worth, which achieved the Number One ranking for business books on The New York Times best seller list in the spring of 2011. Knowing Your Value will be given out as a gift to all luncheon attendees in celebration of WEDC's15th anniversary. The event emcee will be Tara Rosenblum, anchor for News 12 Westchester and the Hudson Valley Weekend Edition. Rosenblum has earned more than three-dozen major industry awards, including three Emmy awards and eighteen Emmy nominations.
Also that afternoon, WEDC has organized a marketplace of goods and services offered by graduates of WEDC's 15-week entrepreneurial training program.
