Held in the evening, the LeadHERship Fireside Chat will offer light bites, beverages, networking opportunities, and an engaging panel conversation designed to inspire and connect attendees. Centered on the power of mentorship and sponsorship, this year’s program will explore how intentional advocacy and meaningful relationships accelerate women’s professional growth and open doors to new opportunities. Attendees will leave with actionable insights, practical strategies, and expanded connections to help them both seek out and serve as champions in their own careers.
Doors open at 5:00 pm, with the panel beginning at 6:30 pm. Following the discussion, guests are invited to continue the conversation through informal networking or an optional facilitated networking and discussion experience. JLC Members may also reserve a time
here for a professional headshot before the panel (limited times available - $25 for one edited headshot).
