KICK OFF YOUR FUTURE – Own Your Career Program is an educational project for young female university students between the 3rd year of their undergraduate and 1st year of their Master’s degree at four Universities in Milan: PoliMI, Bicocca, Bocconi and Cattolica.
The Program – now in its seventh edition – was created by PWN Milan, a professional women’s association that operates in the realms of networking, leadership, gender diversity, mentoring, and implemented with the support of the companies BCG, AstraZeneca, Catalina and Crédit Agricole CIB. 

The Program aims to build a bridge between universities and the world of work, enriching the transition from female student to fully-fledged professional, a delicate moment full of expectations and incognitos. By means of Program activities, PWM Milan aims to stimulate female students into embracing the full potential of this unique moment of their personal and professional life, helping them to experience it as the starting point of a new challenge, with energy and a desire to rise up to the challenge, so that dreams and hopes triumph over fears and insecurities. 

In detail, the Program gives female students the chance to meet different women role models working for the partners’ companies, listen to their professional experience and participate to mini workshops guided by PWN Milan on various topics, amongst which human leadership, personal branding, negotiation and how to nail a job interview, all designed to boost their soft skills.

30 female students will be selected for each edition and will participate in the Program following the same training path of scheduled meetings and workshops.
