Having a strategy, regardless of where you are in your career, is a good idea. However, for women managing work and family it is essential. What is a career strategy? It is a method that links goals and activities. It forces you to confront tough questions: What do you want to achieve professionally? How long will you be out of full-time work? Where are the real gaps in your resume?

W2W Ventures strives to provide guidelines for realistic tasks and timelines to keep you on your path. Sometimes it will be as simple as picking up the phone to connect with a former colleague or it may be as involved as completing a short-term project once a quarter.

Ultimately, it is up to you, but we can collect advice from experts, offer examples of what other women are doing, and expose you to tools that will help.
