Join us for an empowering panel discussion featuring distinguished women of color who have risen to high-ranking positions in corporate America. This event will delve into their unique experiences, the challenges they face, and the strategies they employ to thrive in a competitive landscape.

Engage in an open dialogue about the importance of representation, the evolving corporate culture, and the actions needed to foster an inclusive environment for all.
