AIANY Women in Architecture Committee Meeting

This meeting will take place virtually as a video conference. Please contact the AIANY Program and Events Coordinator here for details on how to join.

After our regular announcements, we will hold a roundtable discussion on the topic of Women in Leadership. We encourage you to read two insightful Harvard Business Review articles which we will discuss in the meeting: Women Score Higher Than Men in Most Leadership Skills by Jack Zenger and Joseph Folkman and Good Leadership is About Communicating “Why”  by Nancy Duarte. Rosalind Tsang, AIANY WIA Advisory Board member, will facilitate this discussion. 

Please find link to full agenda here.
 
We are also delighted to have Keely Denenberg, Senior Client Partner, and Jodi Detjen, Managing Partner from OrangeGrove Consulting join us. They will give us a brief introduction to their firm and the training programs that they offer to improve gender equity and inclusivity for organizations. They will also share their insights from their workshop on “Understanding Bias: Challenges and Opportunities for Women Leadership” at our roundtable discussion.  

As we navigate these unusual times and unforeseen challenges, it is critical to stay connected. We look forward to seeing everyone.
