?? Our 3rd Annual Latina Leadership Summit in partnership with Expedia Group was a success! ?? A huge THANK YOU / GRACIAS / OBRIGADA to everyone who joined us in Miami for a day of uplifting conversations, interactive panel discussions and meaningful connections. More than 100 people joined us in person at Loews Miami Beach Hotel to listen to more than 20 amazing Latina leaders and allies share their experience on topics ranging from "How to break through glass ceilings" to "How to build your executive presence." Our speakers represented various companies and industries, including Expedia Group, SAP, Dell Technologies, Google, Visa, Loews Hotels & Co, TD, Well-Being Financial and Boldyn Networks. Some key learnings: ? Be authentic and true to who you are ? Be concise in your responses to build your executive presence ? It's not about diversity, it's about diverse opinions ? Diverse leadership is good for business ? You deserve to be in that room ? Create a safe space and have open conversations with your team ? Set short-term, achievable goals to help you get to your long-term goal ? The glass ceiling isn't just getting a seat at the table, it's about achieving the little things you never thought you could A huge appreciation to: ??
