Session Description:

For more than 20 years, the executive retreats and leadership training Karen and her team have facilitated for their corporate clients saw few women with a seat at the table. When they were at the table, their presence often went unnoticed. From her personal wisdom as an author, business leader and gifted communicator, Karen uses data and proven strategies to demonstrate how women can own their power and develop their competitive edge. As a woman, how do you develop the grit to lead, the influence to impact change, and the confidence to pursue your goals?
