    Business Leaders SIG: Power Coffee — Problem Solving Before the Day Begins

    Before the meetings. Before the inbox. Before the noise.

    Join us for Power Coffee, a morning designed for women who lead — and who know that some of the best ideas, solutions and breakthroughs happens in the company of people who actually get it.

    This isn't a panel. It's not a presentation. It's a structured, intentionally designed morning where you bring your real business challenges and work through them with a peer group of women who have been there, are in it, or have come out the other side.

    Through guided group discussions, share what's weighing on you right now, and leave with perspective, advice, and the kind of clarity that only comes from a room full of people willing to be honest.

    We'll be gathering at Bittersweet West Loop, a women-owned Chicago run pastry and coffee shop, because the space matters as much as the conversation.

    Come for the coffee.  Bring your toughest challenge.  Leave with fresh perspective, new connections, and the reminder that leadership is stronger when we don't do it alone.

    Date: Thursday, August 6th
    Time: 8:00am - 9:30am
    Location:  Bittersweet West Loop

    Address:  850 W Monroe St, Chicago, IL. 60607

    Parking information:  There is paid street parking available along Monroe or Peoria, or around the park.
    Transit: A 10-15 mins walk from Ogilvie or Union.   Or less than 10 mins from the UIC-Halsted Blue line station (Peoria street exit) or Morgan St Pink/Green line stations (Sangamon exit)


    This event is part of the PWCC Business Leaders SIG — a community for women who run businesses and want a peer group that understands the real weight of leadership.

    Please RSVP so we know to expect you.

    Join The Professional Women's Club of Chicago for an afternoon of learning the game and working on our golf skills in a fun and non-intimidating atmosphere!

    NOTE: This event requires external registration.  We appreciate you registering here so we can contact you with updates about the event, but your registration is not final until you purchase your ticket here. (Ticket price: $45)

    PWCC is teaming up with Fore the Ladies, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, for an introduction-to-golf event! If you've never picked up a golf club or have recently picked up the game (within the last 2-3 years) - this event at The Glen Club is for you! Fore the Ladies, Inc., is a female-based community and non-profit organization on a mission to introduce more women to the game and bring them together to play, watch, and participate in everything golf has to offer. They hope to make golf more accessible and approachable, while removing the expected barriers such as cost, equipment, golf course access and intimidation.

    Golf instructors will teach you the basics of the game and more so you're ready to take your next step in golf - whether that be lessons, the driving range or hitting the course. Ask all of your burning questions about the game, meet other golfers and have a fun afternoon with us at the golf club! Participants will rotate through 30-minute stations to learn fundamentals of putting, chipping and full swing shots. 

    Don’t have golf clubs? No problem, we’ll have sets on hand for you to try. For more info on Fore the Ladies and to see photos from our past events, check out our past events here.

    Who is this event for?

    • Those who have never played golf or have minimal experience with the game
    • Those who have been playing for a few years but would like some tips and instruction
    • Those who love golf and want to hang with others/find a new playing partner and golf friends!
    • Those who want to give golf a try with an open mind in a social atmosphere
    • Please note, all sales are final, and the Fore the Ladies does not offer any money-back guarantees. We will use a waitlist in the event we can fill a spot.
