Please join us to celebrate International Women’s Day 2020! As in prior years, we will host a panel discussion followed by a reception.
Our 2020 discussion topic is “The Path to Leadership”. Our diverse and dynamic group of panelists will share their insight and experience as women succeeding in leadership roles and as women who are supporting other women to do the same. We will discuss issues such as how we can encourage and prepare women to take leadership positions, how women can navigate obstacles and challenges as they ascend to leadership roles and how we can best mentor other women when we are in leadership ourselves.
Karol Denniston, partner and Global Board member, will moderate our panel, which will include:
The Honorable Dalila Lyons, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge
Camilla Eng, General Counsel, Laser Away
Ava Farshidi, Assistant General Counsel, David Yurman
This insightful program will be followed by a mixer, where we will celebrate the economic, political and social achievements of women past, present and future. We hope you will attend the program and stay for the celebration and networking opportunities, where you will enjoy drinks and canapés.
