OWL@AAO: Ophthalmic Business Owners (O.B.O.) Interest Group: A Room of One's Own

Chair: Ellen Troyer

Vice Chair: Cynthia Barrat

The OWL Ophthalmic Business Owners (O.B.O.) Interest Group will have their second program meeting at AAO on Saturday October 18 at 2:00 PM. Our first meeting was at ASCRS. 

As one of OWL’s four new Programs Committees, O.B.O. will provide a unique opportunity to interact with other OWL members who experience similar business challenges and opportunities while participating in the development of meaningful programming that supports the OWL vision of Developing Diverse Leadership To Advance Ophthalmic Innovation And Patient Care. We encourage full business owner participation because in addition to developing stellar programming, this will be one of the best networking opportunities at AAO.  We also invite OWL members who are considering opening their own business and any other persons who are interested in participating.

The best companies in the world purposefully develop a high performing culture through continuous effort, foresight, and commitment.   Dare to expand business performance by sharing successes, and some teaching moment failures, with other ophthalmic women business owners so that we can all optimize performance, move from good to great, and blow the doors off our competition.  "When women business leaders brainstorm about business and tout one another's achievements, all of their businesses grow." -Sheryl Sandberg

Admission to the Saturday Educational Programs is free for all OWL members and available to non-members for $35.
