Bestselling Author Joanne Lipman Headlines Our Women’s Leadership Conference

Since it began six years ago, our Women’s Leadership Conference has grown each year. It now has reached the point where the conference is the most attended event that we offer. See why on May 29 at this year’s Women’s Leadership Conference.

We’re excited about our theme this year, “Bold: Take the Lead.” We will welcome Joanne Lipman as our keynote speaker. Lipman is the bestselling author of That’s What She Said: What Men Need to Know (and Women Need to Tell Them) About Working Together. One of the nation’s leading journalists, she most recently was chief content officer of Gannett, and editor-in-chief of USA TODAY and the USA TODAY NETWORK, compromising the flagship title and 109 other news organizations.

Lipman began her career as a reporter at The Wall Street Journal, ultimately becoming deputy managing editor, the first woman to attain that post. A frequent television commentator, she has received the Matrix Award for women in communications. Lipman is a member of the Yale University Council, the Council on Foreign Relations, and is an international media leader for the World Economic Forum.

You also will discover how to build meaningful mentoring relationships from experienced executives at our morning panel discussion. Learn how to take on the position that fosters others, as well as find out about resources available in the search to grow your own skillset.

This half-day conference also will feature breakout sessions with local successful executives. It is a great way for women in business to connect and network. We will include a continental breakfast, lunch, and a healthy snack.
