Mary Ann Newton, president of the West Monroe –West Ouachita Chamber of Commerce, recently attended the Business and Professional Women's Leadership Summit in Washington, D.C.
The two-day conference provided a forum for about 350 professional women from across the country to discuss a range of policy issues with members of the United States Congress, the administration, and experts in the fields of healthcare, education and business. The conference participants were nominated to attend by their members of Congress.
"Bringing together women leaders, policy experts and our federal officials for an open dialogue on the pressing issues facing our families and communities is critical to moving our nation forward in the 21st century," said Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison (Texas), summit co-sponsor.
Keynote speaker was U.S. Secretary of Labor Elaine L. Chao.
Other notable speakers included Sen. Mitch McConnell of Kentucky; Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska; Rep. Kay Granger of Texas; Sen. Richard Burr of North Carolina; Sen. Lamar Alexander of Tennessee; Carly Fiorina, chairman and CEO of Hewlett-Packard Company (1999-2005); Meg Whitman, former president and CEO of eBay Inc.; Bonnie McElveen-Hunter, founder and CEO of Pace Communications and chairman of the American Red Cross; Dr. Elsa Murano, president of Texas A&M University; and Dr. Mary Evans Sias, president of Kentucky State University. |
