Guest of honor, Jessica Berman, Commissioner of the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL), will engage in a powerful conversation about pivoting and thinking big in our post-COVID work landscape and the importance of women sharing stories of struggle and success to help inspire other women to create positive change.
“As we celebrate progress, globally women continue to face new barriers to economic independence that require them to embrace innovative solutions, redefine their career paths, and realize and reach their full potential,” said Michele C. Meyer-Shipp, CEO of Dress for Success Worldwide. “For 26 years, Dress for Success has supported more than 1.3 million unemployed and underemployed women in their pursuit of economic independence, and we are thrilled to partner with Jessica Berman, a transformative leader and trailblazing executive in women’s sports, to help us explore these important topics and share her groundbreaking personal insights.”
