President's Message
I have been
looking forward to hearing this month's speaker since long before
her originally scheduled presentation in January. We were all
disappointed when Mary Jane Ryan had to reschedule but delighted
now that she is finally able to join us. Mary Jane Ryan is a
best-selling author of many books, works for several different
magazines and is considered a "change expert."
For many of us the last few years, especially the years of the
current economic downturn, have brought changes that we did not
want or even imagine could happen. What a perfect time for our
speaker's guidance on how to cope with such life changes. I hope
you will be able to join me at our dinner meeting this month to
hear Mary Jane Ryan speak and to make some new connections with
other business women.
President, Mt. Diablo Business Women
