The Executive Moms Fall Luncheon, in a new, beautiful ballroom venue, set the tone for our conversation with some of the nation’s most successful executive moms—and our largest audience to date…as guests eagerly signed in and donned their nametags.

Guests connected, and reconnected, during cocktails. Executive Moms President Marisa Thalberg posed with panel members Pam Hendrickson, Head of Global Capital Advisory and Liquidity Management, JP Morgan Private Bank, Linda Keene, CMO of Scholastic and Harriet Edelman, CIO of Avon, along with CNN anchor and event emcee Heidi Collins.

Kicked off by some warm, funny personal commentary by Heidi Collins, the panel launched into an insightful discussion with the audience on what it took to get to the top– as mothers—and they shared some of their own secrets, challenges and victories along the way as an engaged audience listened and participated.Even as the program was winding up, guests came up to the dais to continue the conversation with Heidi, Harriet and Pam. And of course, all guests walked away with a terrific gift bag from our sponsors (while a few walked away with these great additional prizes from Scholastic and WE).
