Collaboration with the non-profit sector is finally being recognized across all industries and businesses as vital to long-term growth, profitability and brand loyalty. Further, no financial entity or governing body will be able to solve the potentially catastrophic issues facing our society and economy on their own. Realistic success will be attained through collaboration on a global scale. Doerr’s unique executive level of experience, in leading corporate inclusion programs, serving on numerous nonprofit boards and heading an international charitable organization, places her as the thought leader in successful global for-profit and nonprofit collaboration.
Women are the future of business. Just take a look at the data and the headlines on how gender dynamics in the workplace are changing. As CEO of The Association of Junior Leagues International, Patsy Doerr leads an organization of hundreds of thousands of women committed to promoting voluntarism and developing the potential of women. In this talk, Doerr will share practical tips and suggestions for women to make their mark and become leaders in their industries, as well as ways to grow their networks and establish positive mentor-mentee relationships.
