Simmons Leadership Conference

A Simmons MBA alumna, Georgina Michael, from our silver sponsor Philips, talks about what it takes to recognize a leader.  Leading Stakeholder Relations at Philips Healthcare, her role provides strategic stakeholder relations, PR counsel and expertise to global teams around the world.  We recently interviewed Georgina for our first Sponsor Blog Post and discussed her leadership qualities and how Philips uses the Leadership Conference as a benefit for their employees who attend.

Simmons SOM Associate Professor Stacy Blake-Beard has focused her research on mentoring and value to women across all industries.  She shares with us her perspectives on her career path and how important it is to network and foster mentoring relationships throughout the course of your career.  Stacy will participate in two sessions on mentoring at this year's Simmons Leadership Conference.

A pioneer as a Wall Street executive, Sallie Krawcheck is our opening keynote speaker and we can't wait for her to offer her views on women in business today and where she sees us on the road ahead.
