The (Non)trepreneur: How Women
Can Build Their Tolerance For
Risk:
Is Your Data Team Being Misused?
Women Serve On Boards Initiative
As an early adopter of technology, Carrie Kerpen
understands the impact of social media and that it
can be a confidence killer for women. If we were to
look at our friends, our colleagues and our
competitors' social profiles, we'd see lives that seem
absolutely perfect. And why not? Social media
creates a highlight reel of our greatest
accomplishments. But behind the mask of social
media, there is great struggle, even for the most
successful of leaders. In this presentation, Carrie
unveils an honest exploration of how her own
experiences and struggles as a leader have led her to
take risks she never thought she would, and become
the entrepreneur that she wanted to be.
@carriekerpen
If your data team only collects data and creates
reports, you are not maximizing their value. This talk
will cover how to collaboratively communicate with
your data team. Both data team members and data
consumers will benefit from learning about how to
ensure data findings have context and are business
action oriented. I will also give some personal
examples of where this has gone horribly wrong.
Olga Mack is the founder of
the WomenServeOnBoards.com movement making a
fiscal and social case for gender equality on
corporate boards. Olga will be presenting her findings
and demonstrating how you can encourage gender
equality on boards.

Serving on a Corporate Board:
Uncover if It’s for You & Where to

Using data to make important business decisions is
paramount to ensure your company strategy is being
effective. Karina will be offering a case study on her
journey into STEM, and how she utilises data to
create a business case for products to deliver ROI for
your company.
Traci has developed an analytics driven, two year
strategy at Canon to push business performance.
Traci is going to discuss the importance of strategy
and how to line up with other areas of the business to
enhance opportunities at Canon. The key theme is
how strategies are now put in place to empower
women.
The journey to the boardroom can, at times, be an
overwhelming undertaking filled with questions about
what to expect, how to prepare, and how to be an
effective board member. During this session with
Women in the Boardroom CEO & Founder
Sheila Ronning, you will get answers to burning
boardroom questions, including, "What are the four
main types of boards? What is the job &
responsibilities of a board director? What are the risks
of serving on a board? Why pursue board service?
And what is the time commitment &
compensation for board service?"

Secret to Cracking the Code at

Mina is currently the Global Director of Content
Strategy & Content Solutions at The Economist
Group.
Why is developing an impactful leadership culture
across the organization a business imperative for
many companies? Effective leadership spurs
productivity and helps teams thrive in times of
transition and change, leading to a competitive edge
and better bottom lines. Visual Leadershipsm is a
powerful, results-oriented leadership development
technique that uses images to help participants
access and express deeply held attitudes about
leadership. Images elicit ideas, attitudes and
emotions in a profound and authentic way, which
allows us to better perceive, understand and act
upon the patterns that emerge. This unique approach
increases leader self-awareness and builds highperforming leaders and teams by driving deeper
thinking and stimulating more open and personal
conversations about leadership.
The numbers are shocking: Based on today’s wage
gap, the average U.S. woman starting her career now
will lose more than $425,000 over a 40-year career.
And it has been reported that some $12 trillion could
be added to the global GDP by 2025 by advancing
women’s equality. We’ve heard the talk. Where’s the
action? Bloomberg wants to be a game changer
when it comes to helping women get ahead. In this
talk, Natasha Cholerton-Brown, a former war-zone
photographer, takes on a battle close to home: She
will discuss her path through the unchartered waters
of a rather unconventional career, her employer’s
new data-based tracker, the Bloomberg GenderEquality Index, and what companies and leaders
need to do to help make sure more ambitious
employees have a shot at the top.

Attracting and Retaining Top Talent
As women working in the start-up/tech world, we are
in the minority. We will use this session to discuss the
things we can do as early female hires to set
boundaries and expectations as well as cultivate
work environments where gender equality can
flourish and ultimately become the professional
norm.
Attracting and retaining top talent is a critical
business issue. Recent focus on this topic has
highlighted the poor job many companies are doing
in attracting and retaining top women, a significant
handicap in a world where women represent 50% of
the talent pool I would like to discuss ways that
companies can improve on this score, borrowing
tactics that they already use in other aspects of
business life.

Innovation and Producing
Extraordinary Business Results
This is What Feminine Leadership
Looks Like
Combatting Stereotypes in STEM
We have years of experience in working with
organizations to create a context for high
performance. We do this by weaving together
innovation practices with individual transformation
work causing a shift people’s relationship to Integrity
and authentic communication and as a result we
have seen strategy implementation teams produce
extraordinary business results. In my presentation I
will discuss the secret sauce of creating a culture of
high performance, one that creates a structure for
extraordinary business results. the foundation for
these results are: Integrity, authentic communication
and innovation processes.
When women first entered the workforce and began
advancing into leadership positions, there was only
one model for how to lead: like a man. That model
has its advantages, but is inherently incomplete
without its feminine complement. Any effective leader
must value and demonstrate qualities of both, yet too
often the feminine gets lost in the competitive culture
of More, Bigger, Faster, NOW. Conscious Feminine
Leadership empowers women leaders to own and
value their strengths as women. By inviting
mindfulness, inclusivity, authenticity, and self-care
into our work, we can shift the culture and create a
more holistic and healthy way of doing business. This
interactive session will show you how you can begin
incorporating Conscious Feminine Leadership
practices and ideals in your everyday work life and
see that effort ripple outward to effect real change.
In the new knowledge economy, outdated 20th
century approaches to HR and performance
management are incapable of supporting a highly
competitive and productive workforce. Savvy
companies are redesigning their workplaces based
on cutting-edge research in psychology and
sociology. Formerly obscure academic terms like
stereotype threat, unconscious bias, and growth
mindset are rapidly becoming key concepts for HR
professionals. This talk will explain the core business
processes most affected by this research and
highlight tools and methods for addressing these new
HR challenges. I will discuss the most effective
strategies to attract, retain, and develop a diverse
and productive workforce for the 21st century.

THE CONFIDENCE FACTOR FOR
WOMEN IN LEADERSHIP
The Future of Women in Politics
Education in STEM
Confidence Factor for Women in
Leadership
Susannah Wellford
Politics is ineffective and uninspiring right now. What
we need are new voices in political leadership. I will
talk about the need to get more young women to run
and why including this diverse, fresh thinking group
will help change politics and society for the better. Adding young women to a Congress where the
average age is 62, 94% are white and 81% are male
will help break the partisan gridlock and bring new
solutions to problems that haven’t been considered
before. I will talk about how we inspire young women
to run, and how we train them to win. I will also
discuss the barriers that hold young women back
from running and how to overcome them. Parna is also a STEM ambassador and an advocate
of women in technology. Her presentation will focus
on education in STEM, and how we can ensure more
students to study the STEM subjects and pursue
'non-traditional' careers.
Diversity and inclusion is more than a gender and
racial gap; it is also a language gap. To increase the
percentage of women in leadership, we must learn
the language of the leaders at the table. In our
research, we recognized that our participants
remained at the “beginners table” and mislabeled
their expertise due to a lack of confidence to leverage
new leadership skills. It takes confidence to learn a
new language, but it is a necessary part of increasing
the percentage of women leaders. The language of
leadership will bridge the gap for women who are
seeking to fill elevated leadership and advisory roles,
while limiting the effects of professional intimidation.
The Confidence Factor for Women in Leadership is
based on 4 years of in house research and the
language barrier for women was one of the top
issues women expressed was the lack of preparation
for high level leadership roles. This talk will give
women the confidence to create value in the
marketplace by limiting the language gap.

Innovating in the Women’s
Economy
To date, most commentators have focused on the
total size of the women’s economy. However, limited
data has prevented a more nuanced sense what the
women’s economy really looks like. How do
“women’s products” meet targeted needs? How
does women’s consumer power vary globally, or
between spending categories? Drawing on newly
published evidence from International Finance
Corporation (IFC), this presentation will highlight what
we know, what we don't know, and what really works
in designing for and marketing to the global women’s
economy. It will also discuss how best to put the
business case for serving the women’s economy into
practice.

GIRL IS NOT A 4 LETTER WORD
Women In Sports and Influential
Marketing Campaigns
For women it’s no longer acceptable for companies
to just “shrink it and pink it” - the old “lets just scale
down the men’s version of a product” and add a
glossy coat of what is perceived to be a “female
pleasing color” on them just doesn’t work as a selling
tool anymore. Women want and need, research to
create a product that works for them on every level
for superior performance, fit, and functionality. They
want to see the research, they want to know WHY,
and most of all, they want to see someone like
themselves using the product in a honest way.
Marketing campaigns need to strive for using real
women over models, athletic builds over skinny girls,
action vs lounging, and have a message and climax
to them that makes you want to take action and
better yourself. Authentic is IN.

In this panel session we will discuss all the key
takeaways from the Women In Enterprise summit,
and what we plan to do next in the drive to achieve
gender equality in the workplace. Some key
discussion points will include:
Underrepresentation in certain industries, and how
we plan ensuring equality
Moving forward, how can we celebrate professional
women and everything they have achieved
What's next for gender equality? What needs to be
done now to reach our goal?
This panel session will focus on how we can tackle
gender stereotypes in sports. Some key discussion
topics include:
Why do you think the sports industry is still male
dominated?
Are there enough female role models in sports? How
can promote them to ensure a positive image of
sports in portrayed to young girls?
What can be done in education to encourage young
girls into sports? Are we doing enough?
How do we approach the gender pay gap in sports
professions?
Women and girls make up more than half the world’s
population — and they are on the frontlines — often
more deeply impacted than men and boys by
poverty, climate change, food insecurity, lack of
healthcare, and global economic crises. Their
contributions and leadership are central to finding a
solution. Through the power of personal stories, we
can bring forth the issues that need to be addressed
for impactful and measurable change. Women are a
critical solution for peace and prosperity. The panel
strives to engage discourse and dialogue to build
bridges through a respectful and impactful engage of
ideas. Freedom and equal opportunity provides an
important framework of the values we hold in order
for women to thrive and strive.
