Quotes from TMD members:"What a fun, interesting, eclectic bunch of women! No matter how I feel whenI start the morning (at 7:30 am), I always feel energized and excited after a TMD meeting." "Listening to the stories of the women from TMD gave me the inspiration to try working for myself. I'm now very happily working at home on projects I enjoy!" "I have made some of my best friends at TMD - the caliber of women is outstanding. In addition, monthly, I get an intriguing dose of challenging social issues close to home and internationally." "The speakers are inspiring and the members are amiable and supportive. I enjoy being a member of the TMD community." Thursday Morning Dialogue gives me a chance to meet women from many different professions and walks of lifemany of whom I would not have had the chance to meet otherwise. I feel my life has been enriched by our groups members. We seem to go beyond just career issues to life issues of mutual concern and interest. I look forward to Thursday Morning Dialogue gatherings. They prove that ambition and a warm, supportive environment are not mutually exclusive. Thursday Morning Dialogue is a perfect antidote to our fast-paced and too often unconnected lives. The groups questions and reactions to the speakers are as interesting as the speakers themselves. My horizons have expanded greatly in the last year, thanks to Thursday Morning Dialogue. Thursday Morning Dialogue has been a very special opportunity to meet fun, creative, and interesting women outside my normal professional or personal circle. The speakers provide a much-needed opportunity to think about issues beyond our daily livesthe world, politics, philosophy, art, etc. Its a way to stay in touch with a liberal arts educationwith people you like and only a one-morning a month commitment. One of the things that makes Thursday Morning Dialogue different, and better, than other clubs Ive been in is (that) we go around the room saying something about ourselvessharing with the group. These tidbits, pieced together over the year weve been meeting, have brought people out in a way that the typical speaker-oriented group cant do. I enjoy TMD tremendously, for two reasons. One is that the speakers are generally very interesting and introduce me to a variety of topics. The second reason is nearly more important: meeting and getting to know the members of TMD is a real asset in my life. All our members are impressive on a professional/accomplishment level and interesting and appealing on a personal level. What a great group of dynamic, upbeat, strong women to greet first thing on a Thursday morning! Thursday Morning Dialogue has filled a void that I did not even realize existed. It has given me an opportunity to build new friendships, broaden my intellecutal horizions, gain inspiration and expand my professional network. Any one of these is reason enough to get up early one morning a month! |
