What is the Spelman College Leadership and Women of Color Conference?
The Spelman College Leadership and Women of Color Conference is the premier leadership conference for women of color. Since 2003, Spelman College and its Center for Leadership and Civic Engagement has brought together world-class experts and thought leaders to explore issues most critical to today’s female leaders. As the nation’s top historically black college and leading higher education institution for women of African descent, the Conference offers a unique perspective and best practices approach for creating and sustaining authentic and ethical leadership, specifically for women of multicultural backgrounds.
The two-day conference is a positive environment for stimulating dialogue as well as professional and personal development opportunities for individuals and organizational teams. Participants are challenged to impact the world around them by maximizing their commitment to leadership where they live, work and play. Here are comments from previous attendees:
