Opening Keynote Highlight: Penny Pennington, Managing Partner of Edward Jones, shared an inspiring insight at today’s event! She revealed that her favorite energy boost comes from falling deeply in love with a problem. She described it as mental jujitsu — a way to harness energy and focus by asking yourself, "Is this problem worthy of my love, time, education, and resources?" And, most importantly, "Does it make other people’s lives better?" This mindset can help you feel motivated, energized, and ready to take on the day with a passion for creating solutions that truly make an impact! #Leadership #ProblemSolving #Motivation #EdwardJones #Innovation #DiversityWomanMedia

"One critical focus of allyship is tackling gender disparities in the workplace. Women face many challenges in the workplace, including being under-represented in leadership positions and experiencing higher rates of harassment. Given the workplace barriers women continue to face, gender allyship from leaders is especially needed." https://ow.ly/MJ0550Ub3NX

"A recent study by the Women’s Sports Foundation revealed nearly 70% of women who played sports in their youth went on to hold leadership roles. The study surveyed nearly 3,000 women across multiple generations and found sports equip girls with lasting leadership skills.

"As companies like Amazon, JPMorgan Chase, and Goldman Sachs bring workers back to the office full-time, concerns are mounting that strict office mandates could harm diversity and make it harder to attract and retain underrepresented talent. Research suggests that such policies disproportionately affect women, minorities, caregivers, and neurodiverse employees, potentially driving them to quit or seek more flexible opportunities elsewhere, according to The Washington Post." https://ow.ly/ISK550U9mxm
