WELCOME
November 11, 2020
Dear friends and colleagues,
When we gathered last year for the 16th annual Pennsylvania Conference Women, none of us dreamt that we would meet virtually this year. But given realities of 2020, we are both grateful and excited to be able to welcome you to
for the the
first-ever virtual Pennsylvania Conference for Women!
We’re grateful because more than 10,000 of you have come together today in a powerful sign of how important this community is. After all, when women come together—to learn, be inspired, and grow in our resilience and ability to lead— anything is possible. That’s why our 2020 theme is Leading the Way Forward. We’re also excited because our team has designed a very special experience for you—with extraordinary speakers, outstanding experts to support you in your journey, and abundant opportunities to connect. This Veterans Day, we are honored today to recognize two remarkable women veterans in our Target Storytellers contest this Veterans Day—and to honor all the nearly two million women veterans who have served our country. Finally, we would like to share the news that, thanks to you and our sponsors, we have been able to donate $175,000 to women-owned businesses—specifically, restaurants across Pennsylvania. This initiative is part of our commitment to women supporting women. This industry has been particularly hard hit by COVID, and we hope that our support will help ease the burden on the 70 restaurants that received funds as they continue their work of nourishing our communities.
With thanks to our sponsors and attendees who made this possible, we wish you a day to remember!

LEADERSHIP Emotional Agility: Adapting Your Leadership Strategy in Difficult Times
Emotional agility is a key skillset that enables you to remain curious, courageous, and values-committed—and improve your ability to lead. Yet in times of great challenges such as those we are facing today, you may find your agility replaced with rigidity, stifled creativity, and weakened relationships—all of which change how you lead. In this session, Dr. Susan David, the creator of the concept of emotional agility, will explore the habits that enable people to be resilient and thrive, lead teams, and change a work culture. She will inspire you to stop getting caught up in your thoughts and emotions, and cultivate emotional agility in you and your team. SPEAKER: Susan David , author, Emotional Agility @susandavid_phd HOST: Laysha Ward , EVP, chief external engagement officer, Target @target SPONSOR SPOTLIGHT: Jennifer Dudinak-Dickson , SVP, global regulatory strategy & policy, Bristol Myers Squibb @bmsnews Effective communication is more important than ever now. It’s a projection of your competence and even your potential as a leader. Great communicators can voice their vision confidently, move plans and projects forward, and present their ideas across all levels of an organization—even if they are doing it virtually. Join this workshop for actionable steps to develop your own communication style. Learn about speaking with clarity and confidence so that your ideas are heard, your value is clear, and your opinions are remembered. SPEAKER: Charmaine McClarie , communications expert & C-suite leadership coach @charmainecoach CAREER ADVANCEMENT How to Be Heard: Effective Communication for Career Advancement Esther Wojcicki is famous for three things: teaching a high school class that has changed the lives of thousands, inspiring legends like Steve Jobs, and raising highly successful daughters, including a doctor and two Silicon Valley CEOs. In this workshop, she shares her secrets for raising successful people, even in today’s complicated current learning environment. Her methods are rooted in trust, respect, independence, collaboration, and kindness: simple lessons with radical results. She discusses how to stop helicopter parenting and start raising, educating, and managing young people to their highest potential.

LEADERSHIP Leadership Strengths: Maximizing Your Impact
In Marcus Buckingham’s breakout best seller, First, Break All the Rules , he showed how to turn an employee’s talent into high performance. This research became a core part of management training to attract and retain the most talented employees. But how do you build your employees’ strengths in the midst of a global pandemic and newly virtual world? Join this session to learn how to maximize the unique leadership skills that you and your team bring so that everyone can contribute their best selves now. SPEAKER: Marcus Buckingham , NYT best-selling author, founder, Strengths Revolution & head, ADP Research Institute @mwbuckingham HOST: Daniela Mardarovici , managing director & co-head, US multisector/core plus fixed income, Macquarie Investment Management @macquarie SPONSOR SPOTLIGHT: Leslie Ferraro , president, QxH, Qurate Retail Group @qurateretailgrp Whether it involves a big career decision or a day-to-day personal decision, uncertainty can paralyze us. In today’s environment of unprecedented uncertainty, it’s easy to put off deciding or stop considering the predictions that underlie our decisions. In this session, renowned poker player and business consultant Annie Duke will offer strategies to avoid these pitfalls when things are uncertain and help you to understand the tradeoff between time and accuracy in decision making. She will identify when it makes sense to undo, reverse, or change a decision, and frameworks that you can exercise to identify your options so you can improve your decision-making abilities. SPEAKER: Annie Duke , decision strategist, former poker champion, & best-selling author, Thinking in Bets and How to Decide @annieduke CAREER ADVANCEMENT Decision-Making Paralysis: Become More Comfortable with Uncertainty HOST: Funmi Williamson , chief customer officer & SVP, customer operations, PECO @pecoconnect SPONSOR SPOTLIGHT: Marge Jackson , SVP, sales enablement & multicultural symphony, Comcast @comcast Planning for retirement has always been complex, and current events may be causing you to second-guess all that planning.

LEADERSHIP Bias-Aware Leadership
Whether we want to or not, we all have unconscious biases. These learned stereotypes are deeply ingrained and, left unconfronted, can negatively influence how we manage teams and interact with colleagues. But bias is famously hard to completely eliminate, and seductively easy to talk about. How can we talk productively about bias without letting ourselves off the hook as leaders? As individuals, how can we reckon with our own biases without getting lost in shame and blame? Join inclusion expert Lily Zheng as she shares why we need to move the conversation from individual bias to systemic bias—and how you can make real change by leading and strategizing with your own biases in mind. This session will offer new opportunities for both personal and organizational growth. SPEAKER: Lily Zheng , DEI thought leader & co-author, The Ethical Sellout @lilyzheng308 HOST: Dana White , chief communications officer, Hyundai Motor America @hyundai SPONSOR SPOTLIGHT: Wanda Hope , chief diversity & inclusion officer, Johnson & Johnson @jnjnews CAREER ADVANCEMENT How to Turn Being Underestimated into Your Greatest Advantage As much as we wish it weren’t so, we still live in a world where being underrepresented often means being underestimated. Five years ago, Arlan Hamilton was homeless and living on food stamps, with nothing but an old laptop and a dream of breaking into the venture capital business. She wanted the chance to invest in the ideas and people who didn’t conform to the image of how a founder is supposed to look. With fierce determination and a will to succeed, Arlan now invests in those high-potential founders who also happen to be female, LGBTQ, or people of color. Join this session to hear her story of how she found the big upside to being undervalued and learn how to find your voice and work your way into any room you want to be in so you can defy other people’s expectations and achieve your own dreams. SPEAKER: Arlan Hamilton , founder & managing partner, Backstage Capital, and author, It’s About Damn Time @arlanwashere MODERATED BY: Erica Williams Simon , narrative strategist & author, You Deserve the Truth @missewill HOST: Lakshmi Stockham , chief of staff to head, innovation, technology & shared services, TD Bank Group @tdbank_us SPONSOR SPOTLIGHT: Maya Martinez-Davis , president, US pharmaceuticals, GSK @gsk Stress and anxiety have increased tenfold for many women this year, and yet time to focus on our emotional health is fleeting. In this session, Dr. Nina Vasan will break down the high-yield strategies you can leverage to improve your mental health. From the more commonly understood tactics, such as enough sleep and exercise, to the lesser-known, such as connecting to your community, everyone has unique needs, but by focusing on the most universal approaches that are backed by the greatest scientific evidence, you can develop a plan of action that will improve not only your mental health, but your physical health and longevity as well. SPEAKER: Dr. Nina Vasan , ED, Brainstorm: The Stanford Lab for Mental Health Innovation, & chief medical officer, Real @ninavasan HOST: Dr. Reetika Kumar , medical director & VP, clinical services, Independence Blue Cross @ibx PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT Hacking Your Mental Health: Science’s Solutions for Maximizing Your Well-Being
