2023 Pohlad Companies Women’s Summit
The second annual Pohlad Companies Women’s Summit was held Thursday, September 21 , 2023 . The Pohlad Companies Women’s Summit, in partnership with woman owned leadership development firm, Leadership Delta, seeks to educate, inspire action, and create long-lasting connections among the employees of various Pohlad Companies. The theme for 2023 was Thrive Together ; taking time to honor unique talents, perspectives, and experiences as women in business. This full-day summit offered 200 women the opportunity to come together and build a sense of community within the Pohlad companies while strengthening their leadership skills. We learned so much from Ashley Kirsner at Skip the Small Talk, Kristin Jonason from the The Prouty Project, Dr. Joi Lewis, Leah Phifer and Catherine Duncan, MA, BCC from Let’s Talk Women’s Health. Plus, an incredible panel with women leaders from Pohlad Companies, Donna Turner, Senior Director of Operations, PAR , and Leticia Silva, SVP HR, Minnesota Twins shared their experiences as women leaders in traditionally male-dominated industries.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion not only shows up in programs, representation, and processes. It lives with the culture and fiber of the organization. The result is a workplace where there is deep trust, respect, and empathy among our teams. At Pohlad Companies, we are focused on ensuring that we live our values, and that our organization is a place where every employee feels seen, heard, and valued.
