 Key Note Speaker: Dr. Lois Frankel

Course Description
Kim KleinThis year, we’re centering our Leadership Summit on women with a social mission.  Our sector is dominated by women leaders…..many are embattled, disillusioned, and very tired.  We are bringing together a group of creative, talented and accomplished leaders to help you reflect, rejuvenate, and become re-inspired.
 
First, keynote speaker, Dr. Lois Frankel, author of See Jane Lead will provoke your thinking about:

•    The childhood messages you received about what it means to be a woman.    
•    How these messages have been reinforced throughout your lifetime.    
•    The unique challenges do these messages present in your workplace and personal relationships.    
•    How to maintain your femininity and still have your voice heard.    
•    Leading a “rich” life.    
•    And more!

Next, the Summit panelists will share their own experiences about recognizing, owning, and harnessing the power of women for good.  They will advance your thinking about taking charge, taking risks, and focusing on making a lasting difference.  Panelists include:

•    NAWBO Foundation – Christine Hershey, Board Chair
•    Every Child Foundation – Jacqueline Caster, Founder
•    Women’s Foundation of California – Ellen Y. Sloan, Board Treasurer
•    Women Helping Youth – Jill Weintraub, Founder
•    Hidden Harvest – Christy Porter, Founder and Executive Director
