Possible Women
“What would happen if women ruled the world?” Dee Dee Myers, former White House press secretary, will ponder this question when she speaks to women over lunch in Atlanta. Myers is the keynote speaker at the Possible Woman Leadership Conference Power, Promise and Possibilities: Women Creating the Magic of Change on Tuesday, April 21 at the Georgia World Congress Center.
Debuting in 1996, the Possible Woman Conference is presented by Wind Enterprises. President and CEO Linda Wind, a nationally known expert on leadership development, will join Georgia Attorney General Thurbert Baker to welcome attendees. Corporate magician Joe M. Turner will kick off the conference with his special brand of magical inspiration. Closing keynote for the conference will be an energetic presentation by Nicki Keohohou, CEO of Direct Selling Woman's Alliance and one of the Top 30 Female Entrepreneurs in America. Lisa Earle McLeod, nationally known speaker and syndicated humor columnist, will add her very special touch of comedy to rev up the audience before our Women of Power and Vision Plenary Session, which will be moderated by Pat Falotico, VP of ibm.com Americas, and will feature Marsha Sampson Johnson, SVP of Southern Company, Debbie Storey, VP of AT&T Operations Inc., and Ann Cramer, Director of IBM North America.
From a 7:30 a.m. continental breakfast to a Connection Reception from 4:45 to 5:30 p.m., this 12th Annual Possible Woman Leadership Conference is a day packed with dynamic speakers, interactive question-and-answer sessions, well-qualified panels, informative exhibits and exciting networking opportunities.
