November - WOMEN of Influence Night
The WOMEN Board of Directors made a format change to WOMEN of Influence Night. The 2015 edition of the WOMEN of Influence Awards eliminated the competition of a traditional awards night, opting instead to honor two women from Miramichi with each award. This change was well-received by the community.

Social Media and You
We asked, you answered and we listened.
WOMEN members told us they wanted a professional development opportunity focused on using social media to promote their business. Our network, in partnership with NB association of CDBC’s Women in Business, invited Terri Cormier to Miramichi for an evening session on what all those social media venues meant for our businesses and how to use them to generate traffic and business. A packed room listened while Terri told them how their business would benefit from social media and gave tactical planning to increase their website ranking and traffic.

Karen inspired us that evening to accept change, continue to advocate and be inspired by life around us.
