Voices of Leadership: Women of Color Navigating Corporate America

In partnership with Fabletics, the El Segundo Economic Development Corporation, & USC Black Business Students Association…

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.

As we explore the current state of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) in the corporate sector, our panelists will share their insights on the impact of today’s political climate on DEI initiatives. 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.

Whether you’re a professional looking to elevate your career, a student aspiring to enter the corporate world, or an advocate for social justice, this event promises to inspire and inform. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from trailblazers who are shaping the future of corporate leadership.
