** REGISTRATION FOR THIS EVENT IS NOW CLOSED.
with Keynote Speaker Marissa Orr
Join us in October for a celebration of empowerment and inspiration! The Evening of Empowerment brings together 200+ and always offers a takeaway to immediately help you develop professionally and personally. This year...let's think deeper about women, and roles, in the workplace...and leave with a book in hand to lean In, or OUT.
Former Google and Facebook executive, Marissa Orr, offers a compelling answer to the question few dare to ask: What have we gotten wrong about women at work?
Leaning Out: The Truth About Women, Power, & the Workplace
The first 150 registered attendees will receive Marissa's book! Based on in-depth research and personal experiences, Marissa shares her journey as a single mom of three trying to find success in her 15-year career at the world's top tech giants. She gives an insider's look at the systemic dysfunction inside today's most progressive organizations, providing a new perspective on why there are so few female leaders in corporate America. Featured in Forbes, Fox, Yahoo! Finance, and CNBC, Lean Out is not simply a retort to Sheryl Sandberg's Lean In, but a revolutionary path forward with the power to change the lives of men and women in the corporate world and beyond. With Lean Out, Orr provides a fresh voice for a new generation of thinkers.
Marissa Orr is a former Google & Facebook executive, bestselling author, and leadership speaker. Spending 15 years working at today's top tech giants, she has conducted talks for thousands of people in the US, Europe, and Asia-Pacific, at companies and universities such as Google, Twitter, Pace University, New School, American Express, and more. Originally from Miami, Orr received her Master's degree in Decision and Information Sciences from the University of Florida. Her best-selling book, Lean Out, The Truth About Women, Power, & the Workplace, was released by HarperCollins Leadership in June of 2019.
