UPWARD's exponential growth has been 100% grassroots which tells you that something unique and good is going on. Senior level professional women are attracted to the well facilitated engagement with peers and the on-the mark-topics. I appreciate that UPWARD forums are not about admiring problems, they are about overcoming. It's about women leaders advancing by connecting with each other and telling our stories, giving advice, and lending a hand. Some call it the good ol' girls network.
