Sip N' Chat 2023
Featuring inspirational leaders Erin Donar, Jenn Litz-Kirk and Traci Gentry

Sip N' Chat 2023

In commemoration of Women’s History Month, Glazer’s Beer & Beverage invited folks to come together to celebrate all the fantastic women who are challenging the status quo and shattering glass ceilings in their personal and professional lives. The Sip N’ Chat panel provided a platform for corporate thought-leaders to engage in meaningful discussion. Over 300 individuals joined the Live Event.


Panelist experts included Erin Donar, Vice President of Communications for the National Beer Wholesalers Association (NBWA), Jenn Litz-Kirk, Director of Content and Executive Editor of Schuhmacher Publishing's Beer Publications, and Traci Gentry, Partner at Perpetual.


  • The three panelists share a passion for educating and elevating women in their industries, building communities that support women through resources and relationships, and creating more opportunities for women in leadership roles. Erin and Jenn are both a part of NBWA's BREW initiative to promote women to higher ranks of beer industry leadership. Jenn serves on the board of the BREW initiative, as well as the three-tier group, Alliance for Women in Beer.?Traci is a member of Chief, the only organization specifically designed for the most powerful women executives to strengthen their leadership, magnify their influence, and pave the way to bring others with them.?


The group delve into a range of thought-provoking topics, including personal journeys from of each of the featured guests, key lessons for women navigating the corporate world, the importance of advocating for ideas and people, the "if you can see her, you can be her" principle and how to support women by creating meaningful impact in professional environments. Additionally, the discussion tapped into the greatest skills we have seen in successful leaders (of all genders) that we aspire to emulate.


Speakers engaged with both a live audience and virtual audiences from 11 branch locations across Arkansas, Texas, and Louisiana. The format of the event offered a unique opportunity for audience members to hear special tips and feedback from presenters that they would otherwise not have received from a traditional virtual presentation or meeting.


The 2023 Sip N’ Chat Event was largely successful as speakers offered clarification on complex issues and topics, recommended tangible tactics to serve as better allies for women across all industries, provided a platform for people to ask questions and triggered lively internal discussions leading to the development of new ideas.
