Washington D.C. Area Women in the Boardroom April 20, 2010

Women in the Boardroom, formerly known as Women on Boards, is an executive leadership event designed to assist in the preparation for board service - better qualifying and connecting attendees with the right resources. Our panelists are executives with for-profit board experience and a desire to share their knowledge and necessary tools for serving as a director. Although the focus is for-profit boards, much of the knowledge gained can be applied to non-profit service.

Panelist:

Karen Hastie Williams, Retired Partner , Crowell & Moring LLP
Sheila Brooks, Founder, President & CEO , SRB Communications, LLC
Lynn Shapiro Snyder, National Health Care & Life Sciences Practice Leader and Founder & President, Epstein Becker & Green, P.C. and Women Business Leaders of the U.S. Health Care Industry Foundation
Sheila Ronning, President & CEO, Sharp UpSwing (Panel Facilitator)

Having originated in 2002 in a single city, Women in the Boardroom has now become an annual event in 15 cities nationwide. All current presidents, directors and professionals in leadership roles - men and women - are encouraged to attend as an opportunity to learn from the panelists' unique experiences and network with other executives and board members.
