WELCOME FROM THE NATIONAL DIVERSITY COUNCIL
Angeles Valenciano
CEO
National Diversity Council
Dear Participant,
Welcome to the 2016 Columbus Women in Leadership Symposium hosted by The Ohio Diversity
Council. This event offers an opportunity for you to observe, learn, network and hear different
perspectives from a diverse mix of female executives who have made the climb up the corporate
ladder.
The theme for today’s symposium is Secure Your Place at the Table. Despite advances over the past
several years, women continue to be underrepresented in the C-Suite and executive leadership teams
of businesses across the nation. By bringing together successful women leaders, we hope to educate,
their organizations.
Listening to the success stories of today’s panelists is only one part of the symposium. In the business
world, both networking and professional development are key when seeking career advancement.
Therefore, I strongly encourage you to take the initiative to meet new colleagues, talk openly about
today’s topics, and exchange ideas in order to make your experience today as rewarding as possible.
We sincerely appreciate your attendance today in support of the Women in Leadership Symposium
and the Ohio Diversity Council. I would like to thank our corporate sponsors, planning committee
members, program participants, and volunteers for their support and participation. Without each of you,
this event would not be a success.
Sincerely,
Angeles Valenciano

8:45am - 9:05am “STOP NETWORKING & START MAKING CONNECTIONS”
JoAnn Strasser
Partner
Thompson Hine LLP
Introduction:
Everyone must be a proactive networker in today’s environment. It is important to note that the
ability to hold conversations with others and collect business cards is not enough. Networking
is not connecting. It takes a unique person to successfully connect with the right individuals at
a particular meeting or event. Make the transition from a networker to a connector in order to
create opportunities for yourself.
9:05am - 9:25am “FINDING & OWNING YOUR VOICE”
Cathy Lyttle
Vice President, Corporate Communications & Investor Relations
Worthington Industries
Introduction:
What does it mean for women to have a voice in meetings or within their organization? Many
women consistently feel less effective in meetings than in other business situations. Some say
conversations. How can women navigate perceptions around assertiveness in the workplace while
owning their voice?
9:25am - 9:45am “POSITIONING YOURSELF FOR THE NEXT BIG OPPORTUNITY”
Lorraine Washington
Senior Vice President, Human Resources
Summa Health System
Introduction:
According to Benjamin Franklin, Opportunity often comes disguised in overalls covered in mud.
In today’s environment, successful careers are often developed by taking the road less travelled or
by accepting projects or assignments that may not seem appealing. However, these assignments
may provide unique opportunities to stand out amongst your peers and other leaders. Learn when
and how to take risks to ensure you are positioned for the next big opportunity.

Kim Zavislak
Partner
KPMG LLP
Introduction:
Highly successful women do not leave things to chance. They build networks, leverage their
connections, and go after what they want. This frame of mind highlights the importance of selfbranding, which is essential to climb the corporate ladder. Take charge of your personal brand
and start thinking more creatively and strategically about yourself and your abilities.
10:55am - 11:15am “GET A SPONSOR & GET AHEAD”
Joy Kouns-Lewis, PhD, SPHR, SHRM-SC
Senior Director, Human Resources
Childen’s Hunger Alliance
Vice President
Asian American Commerce Group
Introduction:
In “Forget a Mentor, Find a Sponsor: The New Way to Fast-Track Your Career”, Sylvia Ann
Hewlett says that mentors may offer an open door and helpful guidance but, to win, you need
a sponsor. In the corporate world, if women want to get ahead, they need to identify strategic
sponsors. These are individuals with credibility willing to vouch for your talents, skills, and
abilities while advocating for your advancement in the organization. Learn important tactics to
identify and impress a potential sponsor who can be your advocate in the road to career success.
