This is a coming together of highly accomplished professionals who happen to be women. These are individuals who represent their governments and nations to the rest of the world. Consequently, this offers scope for a rich discussion on navigating various cultural, political, economic forks and bends.

Our panel of truly exceptional women addresses the power and prestige that comes with working in the foreign service.  What are their hardest assignments? How do they deal with cultures that are resistant to change with respect to dealing with women at the negotiating table? This wide-ranging panel discussion will examine the nuances of being women on top of their game.
