Featuring Sharon Butler ’06, vice president for human resources at Empire State University.

Real stories of leadership, reinvention, and impact from women who are shaping their communities, careers, and industries.

Join us for a new virtual conversation series featuring accomplished women leaders who have built successful careers through persistence, purpose, and pathways uniquely their own. Through candid discussions about leadership, reinvention, and personal growth, you’ll hear how each woman navigated her own journey, overcame challenges, and created impact in her field. Wherever you are in your career or educational journey, these conversations will remind you that there is no single path to leadership and that new possibilities remain within reach.

Each session will begin with welcome remarks from Amanda Sbriscia, vice president for Advancement, and the conversation will be moderated by Julie Gedro, dean of the College of Business.

Each session begins at 6 p.m. Eastern on Microsoft Teams.
