• 10:00 – 10:45 : “Lift Others Up As You Rise” – Presented by Laura Moskwa
  Women number about 60% of people in the front lines of business, but only 20% are in top leadership positions. What helps those women rise to the top are two things; passion for the work they do, and a willingness to bring others along with them just as they have been brought along, by both women and men.   As a working mother, as a woman of color and for every woman in business, shattering glass ceilings and bringing others with you amplifies the broader community and increases opportunities for success.
• 11:00 – 11:45 : “Collaboration & Networking” – Presented by Janice Hurley, Lisa Kolb, and Kris Ullmer
  Collaboration and networking are at the heart of what women leaders instinctively do. It’s a strategy many working women take from their home life, where such cooperation is so essential, and bring to the workplace. True collaboration lifts everyone, not just the leader, and typically results in the best outcomes. There are lessons to be learned from everyone with whom you share ideas, whether from within your own industry, in other trades, even from those with whom you volunteer in the community or share with.

• 2:30 – 3:15 : “Take Risks” – Presented by Janice DeLerno-Verges
  “Are women more risk-averse than men?” Initially, as a business women, it may make you a little nervous. But it turns out that each time you allow yourself to get out of your comfort zone, it becomes an opportunity for growth—and it gets easier each time, because you can see the accomplishments that come out of it. Stretching yourself and surrounding yourself with other competent people can be a challenge. But in the end, not trying is more to be feared than failure, and following your gut will rarely steer you wrong.
