Wishing you all a happy and safe Memorial Day. My Grandmother Mae was a nurse stationed in France during WWI. The soldiers called her “Slim.”

Annalena Reports on Bay Path College Women’s Leadership Conference
Annalena, 16
Annalena dedicated her WBCR-lp community radio show “Our Funky Cheese Shack” yesterday to report on her experience at The Power of Choice: 16th Annual Bay Path College Women’s Leadership Conference that she and I attended in Springfield, Mass. last month. She discusses the difference between this event and the Omega Women & Power 2010: Our Time to Lead Conference that we attended last year and gives her impressions and analysis of talks by Wes Moore, Alison Levine, Victoria Reggie Kennedy, Catherine Tweedie of McKinsey and Co.’s Centered Leadership project, and Dr. Angela Duckworth.
