Transforming Women’s Leadership initiative and the University of Pennsylvania’s Carey Law School proudly present the <strong>third installment of</strong> <strong>a</strong> <strong>three-part webinar series on advancing equity in leadership</strong>. Leveraging nuanced insight and brand new research around allyship and inclusivity, this series offers meaningful solutions toward advancing career and leadership opportunities for underrepresented individuals in the workplace.</p> <p>Our collective human history is riddled with examples of male leaders who have overcome adversity to achieve “great” success. Often these leaders possess qualities revered by both bureaucracy and boardrooms alike. Yet given that minorities and women still hold few positions of “power”, one cannot help but beg the question of whether these traits are narrowly defined—and thus biased in their nature—or if the perceptions around things like “leadership” and “power” are somehow flawed? Our panel will discuss the biases they see around leadership traits and how these biases have shaped employment growth opportunities for some, while blocking access to others. They’ll also offer thoughts on what needs to be done collectively to redefine qualities traditionally seen as inherent to success so that everyone is fairly represented on all levels of the leadership ladder.</p> <p><strong>Sign up today!

Often these leaders possess qualities revered by both bureaucracy and boardrooms alike. Yet given that minorities and women still hold few positions of “power”, one cannot help but beg the question of whether these traits are narrowly defined—and thus biased in their nature—or if the perceptions around things like “leadership” and “power” are somehow flawed? Our panel will discuss the biases they see around leadership traits and how these biases have shaped employment growth opportunities for some, while blocking access to others. They’ll also offer thoughts on what needs to be done collectively to redefine qualities traditionally seen as inherent to success so that everyone is fairly represented on all levels of the leadership ladder.</p> </div> </div> <div class="session-top clearfix"> <div class="time ws1-ws3 d1-d3 t1-t2 m-all"><span>1:10 PM EDT</span></div> <div class="session-title ws3-ws12 d3-d12 t2-t6 m-all ws-overlap d-overlap t-overlap">Closing Remarks</div> </div> <div class="session-bottom clearfix"> <div class="session-info ws3-ws12 d3-d12 t2-t6 m-all"><p>Presenter:<br/> <strong>Natalie Runyon, </strong><em>Director of Enterprise Content, Talent, Inclusion & Culture, </em>Thomson Reuters</p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="tabs-content faculty ws-all d-all t-all m-all"> </div> <div class="tabs-content downloads"> </div> <div class="tabs-content sponsors event-sponsors ws-all d-all t-all m-all"> </div> <div class="tabs-content accreditation"> <h2>Accreditation</h2> </div> <div class="tabs-content venue ws-all d-all t-all m-all"> <div class="event-venue ws1-ws6 d1-d6 t1-t3 m-all"> </div> </div> <div class="tabs-content related"> </div> </div>   <div class="event-sponsors clearfix"> <h2 class="subheader2">Sponsors of This Event</h2> <div class="sponsors-static"> <div class="sponsor-slide clearfix"> </div> </div> </div>  <div class="ws-all d-all t-all m-all clearfix"> <div id="newsletter-signup" class="m-all t-all d-all ws-all clearfix"> <div class="ws1-ws4 d1-d4 t-hide m-hide newsletter-image-wrap"> <img width="315" height="197" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20200920184024im_/https://www.legalexecutiveinstitute.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Cropped-LEI-e1548862749169.jpg" class="newsletter-image" alt="industry focus"/> </div> <div class="ws5-ws9 d5-d9 t1-t4 m-all newsletter-copy"> <p>Sign up to receive updates on thought leadership.
