Love seeing Mee Warren, CFA, CAIA, one of our Global Female Investors Network members, on the front cover of the University of Minnesota - Carlson School of Management's Women's Leadership Conference. Nice to see Marcia Page as one of the speakers too!
Two of the sessions at the conference that Mee cited as most impactful were on "Failure" and "Disagreement doesn't need to be divisive."
In my experience, both "failure" and "learning how to disagree without destroying relationships" are truly part of the successful journey of life and career. Where success isn't defined by an event but rather by grit, tenacity and an inclusive dialogue that enables us to live the life we all deserve. A journey made much less lonely if we can "find our people" along the way.
My life's work is helping to bring together like-minded professionals, especially those who find themselves as a minority in the workplace. It's my passion and joy!

Sarah Oehler said it all and I agree. Many thanks to everyone involved in making this event a success year after year. Dr. Mercedes Ramirez Fernandez and Marci Page delivered invaluable insights. Check them both out especially MPowered Capital. The sessions on 'Failing' and 'Disagreement doesn't have to be Divisive' were revealing in that we need to reframe/rephrase/pivot the conversation.
And quite the surprise! I found myself on the cover of the Women's Leadership Conference brochure! Being associated with such a powerful event is such an honor, especially one that's sold out - a testament to our collective dedication to embracing women's leadership and I desire for more. Here's to seizing every opportunity to grow and lead with conviction. #csom#Womeninfinance#womenleaders

Female leaders, as we celebrate Women's History Month, let's take a moment to ponder a few questions:
- Is the rise of female leadership and inclusivity genuine progress or mere optics? - How can we, as female leaders, ensure that our strides towards inclusive leadership are substantive and not just for show?
- Are we actively preparing junior women in their career journey to step intoleadership roles?
I am genuinely curious on your perspectives of how we can authentically empower women in leadership roles and drive meaningful change.

It’s been 20 years since we first launched our Women’s Leadership Report, highlighting the status of women’s leadership among Michigan’s public companies.
In our inaugural report, women held a mere 9.6% of corporate board seats and just 7.1% of the top-five compensated officer positions. Today, these figures have grown, with women now occupying 26% of board seats and 18% of the highest-paid executive positions.
We’re seeing progress, but we know there is still so much work to do.

This morning's meeting was a testament to the passion and determination of the trailblazing women who have already joined our ranks; it was an absolute whirlwind of inspiration as we delved into shaping the agenda for our groundbreaking program, set to empower both current and aspiring board members. Being at the forefront of this initiative isn't just about creating an agenda; it's about catalyzing change, about propelling women and underrepresented groups into the very heart of decision-making.

We're crafting a platform where voices that have long been marginalized will be heard, where opportunities will be opened, and where the path to leadership will be paved for all.
Together, we're rewriting the narrative of corporate leadership, making it more equitable, more inclusive, and more representative of the diverse tapestry of talent that exists in our society.
If you've ever felt the call to action, if you've ever dreamt of being part of something bigger than yourself, then consider this your invitation. Join us in our mission to bridge the gap, to shatter glass ceilings, and to create a future where leadership knows no boundaries.
