    March 10: Women’s History Month

    Join us Tuesday for a special program in celebration of Women’s History Month. Kathy Cookerly, Marie Koenig, Natasha Krupp, and Costeena Weathersby will participate in a panel discussion moderated by Tiana Johnson.

We hope the discussion resonates with women in the audience who may be navigating similar challenges, while also reinforcing the importance of partnership with men as allies in the workplace and beyond. Women’s History Month provides an opportunity to recognize and elevate the incredible female leaders in our network whose impact, legacy, and leadership are helping build a stronger and more inclusive future.
