Community
Women's business clubs versus online groups, what each does
In-person clubs and online communities do different jobs: one builds referral-grade trust, the other moves information fast, and most owners need both at different stages.
The current edition
Community News and People
Community covers the groups people credit when things improve: mentoring circles, professional networks, industry associations and neighborhood organizations. Each piece explains what a group does, who it serves and how to join. Written for readers seeking practical support rather than another panel discussion about support.
