Our inspiring Keynote speaker is Natasha Mascarenhas Wright, a powerhouse leader who is simultaneously working at Google, running her own nonprofit, and parenting three children; she will share her own leadership journey and lessons learned in “doing all the things,” as she says.
We will also be joined by two speakers who specialize in teaching transformative skills that specifically support you in becoming a more resilient leader:
- Emotional Fitness, led by Dr. Vaneeta Sandhu
- Adaptive Leadership, led by Melissa Jones, MPA
Emotionally Fit Leadership: As ambitious entrepreneurs and leaders, we can face unrelenting stress that can interfere with quality work & personal relationships. In this talk, you’ll learn to treat your mind as a muscle with the 7 traits of emotional fitness. Dr. Vaneeta Sandhu will explain the 7 traits of emotional fitness to help you be more resilient and improve your ability to deal with stress, anxiety, & self-doubt. You’ll walk away feeling more prepared as a leader, and ready to kickstart your emotional fitness regimen.
Adaptive Leadership: Learn how to apply this practical framework that helps individuals and organizations adapt and thrive in challenging environments. It is being able, both individually and collectively, to take on the gradual but meaningful process of change.
Keynote: Natasha Mascarenhas Wright, founder of Chai for Charity, will share her own leadership journey and lessons learned in leading through changes and challenges. “As women, I think we have a bad habit of undervaluing the power of (what are commonly referred to as) ‘soft skills’; I refer to them as superpowers. Our dazzle, commitment, connection, determination, and hunger to create, innovate and amplify is what makes us well-positioned to do all the things. All. The. Things.”
