Still feeling inspired by the extraordinary celebration of the Annual International Women's Day Symposium hosted two weeks ago! The energy was electric as we welcomed the brilliant Bettina Deynes, SHRM-SCP (she/her/hers), Global Chief Human Resources Officer Carnival Corporation, who delivered a truly inspiring keynote address. Six thought-provoking panels took us on a journey through leadership lessons, resilience strategies, turning adversity into advancement, and navigating cross-cultural collaborations. The wisdom shared in these rooms will undoubtedly ripple through our professional lives for months to come! Our celebration continued with a champagne reception sponsored by the Gardenia Foundation. During the reception we feature a stunning exhibition of works by female artists from across the globe curated by Kareem Marshall. A perfect culmination to a day of empowerment and global perspective!
