Episode Description

The buzz: Women at work. Women in the workforce wield significant influence as drivers of change across industries and fields, far beyond their traditional roles in HR. How? Through ERGs (employee resource groups), a think-tank networking forum where the brightest, most effective women leaders exchange ideas and strategies. Is your company leveraging this power? The experts speak. Simone Morris, Diversity and Inclusion Leader: “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us” (Marianne Williamson). Marla Britt, Applied Materials: “I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people never forget how you made them feel” (Maya Angelou). Bela Dwivedi, SAP: “Do not go where the path may lead; go instead where there is no path and leave a trail” (Ralph Waldo Emerson). Join us for Women Driving Change: Power of Employee Resource Groups.
