Slow Mixer
FREE!
Want to ease into the WMA annual meeting with something that is more low-key? All are invited to join WMA's Diversity & Inclusion Committee for an opportunity to mix and mingle at your own pace and comfort-level. We'll set up some group agreements to ensure a safe and comfortable environment. Then, we'll have an opportunity to engage in self-facilitated, small group chats, and ice-breaker activities hosted by one of WMA's newest committees.
