Laura Cox Kaplan

Laura Cox Kaplan is the creator of She Said / She Said — a multimedia platform for women who strive to live their best lives with intention and who seek insight and inspiration through thoughtful conversation and content focused on women. Laura’s 30-year career spans policy, communications, business, and media. She spent 10 years on the executive management team of global professional services firm PricewaterhouseCoopers, LLP, where she served for 12 years as Principal-in-Charge of Government, Regulatory Affairs and Public Policy, coordinating strategies across more than 150 countries. Before that Laura held senior positions at the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission, and the U.S. Department of the Treasury, after getting her start as a Press Secretary on Capitol Hill. Motivated by a desire to pay her life’s work forward and to invest in other women, she recognized the power and potential in sharing stories of how successful women have understood, embraced, and leveraged influence. She followed her own advice — “understand your fear, but don’t let it stop you” — and She Said/She Said podcast was born. In addition to her work on She Said / She Said, Laura is a corporate and non-profit board member and advisor, author, and adjunct professor at American University. A frequent speaker and blog contributor, Laura’s work has appeared in many publications, including Fortune Magazine, U.S. News, The Huffington Post, and World Economic Forum Blog.
