Dr. Buckmaster will present the stories of senior level female executives who have worked for systemic change in their organizations to achieve gender equity. These women are among the most powerful, engaging women in corporate America from leading companies such as Nike, Starbucks, Hewlett-Packard, Xerox and Pfizer.
