Last Vegas—The inaugural Women’s Leadership Conference is kicking off at The International Surfaces Event (Surfaces) 2022. It will take place on Monday, January 31, from 1 p.m. to 7 p.m. The conference aims to deliver career growth and develop leadership skills for women newly entering the workforce or who already have decades of experience.
The half-day program for women, by women, promises networking opportunities, panel discussions, a featured presenter and an evening networking cocktail party that will inform, inspire and excite learners (male allies are welcome) to take action.
FCNews’ senior editor/digital director, Megan Salzano, will moderate the event’s 1:30 panel discussion: “Enshrining the Leader in You.” The panel will feature two founding members of Women of the Flooring Business, Michelle Winters, co-owner of Texas-based New Braunfels Flooring, and Lisbeth Calandrino, speaker, columnist and industry veteran; as well as Shannon Vogel, owner, Reach Social.
