Women In Leadership: A View from the Top

Women aspiring to leadership positions face a different set of obstacles than men. Once they are established in leadership roles there are also unique challenges they encounter. Our panel of seasoned education leaders will share their career journeys and lessons learned along the way. Through this discussion, we hope to inspire and empower the next wave of women leaders in education.
