Just four women who identify as Black has served as the CEO of a Fortune 500 company:  These Statistics show how significant Lisa’s presence and leadership are for representing women as leaders of the C-Suite.

Now that we're at the table don't let the question be, "so what? or what now"? The question is, "How can I pull up a chair for another woman?". Share the space equally and effectively by using your passion for inspiring and building trusted relationships as you advance in your leadership roles. Relationships influence the table!
Relationship building for women is the essential skill set we, as women, bring to the table. We instinctively know this and are always tending to and building relationships.
