On September 29, 2026, Paphaella Poteau will participate in “From Token to Trailblazer: Building Enduring Power for Women in Leadership,” sponsored by CenterForce as part of its Leadership & Equity Series.
The panel will examine the challenges facing women in senior leadership as organizations navigate changing approaches to diversity, equity, and inclusion. The discussion will focus on moving beyond representation to building lasting influence, authority, and leadership pipelines.
Panelists will explore strategies for strengthening mentorship and sponsorship, building political capital and executive trust, navigating evolving expectations around leadership and inclusion, and creating pathways to leadership that can withstand shifting corporate priorities.
