Distinguished Lecture Series

Women in Leadership: Navigating Through Power Structures, Personal Challenges, and a Pandemic


Thursday, March 11, 2021
5:30 - 7:00 PM PST | Via Zoom

DLS Panelists

The Margaret J. Weber Distinguished Lecture Series welcomes a dynamic panel of female leaders to share lived experiences and perspectives to inspire all genders. More than just another “women’s history month event,” these pioneers will share advice for obtaining "stretch-opportunities" for professional growth, expanding networks, and accessing resources.

Moderated by respected family law practitioner, Stacy D. Phillips, the panel will share insights from successes and setbacks in the workplace and in life. They will also discuss how the pandemic has amplified obstacles and created opportunities that did not previously exist.

Learn strategies for navigating the contours of power related to gender, race, and the political structure in an organization, and the role male advocates and managers play in addressing workplace challenges faced by under-represented employees, particularly women. This event is open to the public and questions will be solicited from the audience. 

Each panelist is a pioneer in her own right. Do not miss this opportunity to hear their stories and be inspired and reminded of how capable, resilient, and connected we all are.
