The Power of Advocacy in Leadership

About the event

Enjoy light bites, beverages, and complimentary professional headshots as you network with peers and industry leaders – then stay for a powerful panel conversation exploring the critical roles of mentorship, allyship, and sponsorship in advancing women in today’s evolving workplace.

Our panel, “Mentorship Opens Doors, Allyship Holds Them Open, and Sponsorship Walks You Through,” will dive into how women rise not only through guidance and support, but through the bold, career-defining advocacy of those who use their influence to elevate others. Together, we’ll unpack the unique impact of mentors, allies, and sponsors, and how each role shapes a more equitable path to leadership.

Joining us for this dynamic conversation are:

• Arturo Petrozza, Chief Customer Officer US at Reckitt
• Jennifer O'Neill, Communications & Corporate Affairs Director, America’s at Reckitt
• Stacey Staaterman, CEO, Staaterman Strategic Advisory
• Christine Barringer, CFO at L&R Distributors

Whether you’re growing your network or your career, this event offers inspiration, practical insight, and the chance to be seen – in more ways than one.
