SMU Hegi Family Career Development Center

The Hegi Career Leaders program started off the year on a high note with a professional development session led by our employer partner Stefani Hoffman of Enterprise Mobility!

Stefani led an engaging presentation on leadership and developing a personal leadership style. She encouraged the Hegi Career Leaders to reflect on their strengths, explore how they want to lead, and consider the impact they can make on those around them.

This meeting set the tone for an exciting year of growth, collaboration, and leadership development for the Hegi Career Leaders!
