Workplace Diversity for Real
We may need to catch up on how diversity breeds competitive advantage. More viewpoints can lead to creative solutions. How do we evolve our recruiting outreach, job descriptions, and organizational design to create space for more intellectual and cultural diversity? Join us to discuss your organization and how you are succeeding or challenged in building an organization you lead with people from diverse backgrounds.
From Company to Community
You are accomplished if invited to this summit. But for some of us, our careers cannot be the sole focus of our life energy. How do we marshal our talent and energy into community, education, and charitable endeavors?
Managing Generational Differences
Lost in the knee-jerk narratives about GenX/Z/Millennials is that the digital revolution has produced different approaches to life and communication during the past 30 years. It’s not good enough to complain about differing attitudes. We need actionable solutions. Join this conversation because you have case studies on what works and want to emerge energized to lead.
Taking Care of Parents, Kids, and Partners
Whether or not you have a terrific partner, society hasn’t evolved that much. In American society, women do much of the caretaking. This is not a gripe session. Instead, you show up to say, “Here’s how I’ve hacked the system.” The result is that attendees go home with actionable advice and a renewed belief that balance is possible.
Don't Sweat It
Is there anything worse than sitting at a conference table with a half-dozen senior colleagues and finding yourself dripping in sweat and needing to shed layers even though the AC usually freezes the room? Menopause causes significant changes for women who are at the peak of their power, yet we don’t discuss it, and many of us feel shame. This is a discussion about getting Menopause into the corporate light, but it’s also about having an instant support network.
The Older I Get, The More I Learn
Our attendees have a 25-year age range. How do we unlock the wisdom of experiential difference, and in particular, how do we upend the conventional framing that older is wiser? This is a roundtable about how more seasoned professionals learn from their younger colleagues and update their worldviews and, more importantly, their management techniques.
