Magellan Corporation partnered with the Executives’ Club of Chicago to sponsor four seminars as part of their 2019 Women in Leadership Series. Our first event was held in March and featured a stimulating panel discussion on the subject “Women in the Workplace: How Far Have We Come; How Far Do We Have To Go.” Panelists included Time’s Up’s Tina Chen, Lashana Jackson of R1 RCM, Barri Rafferty of Wells Fargo Bank and McDonald’s Corporation Chief People Officer Melanie Steinbach.
Subsequent lunch seminars featured Melinda Gates on the release of her book, “The Moment of Lift: How Empowering Women Changes the World,” and indefatigable fashion maven Diane von Furstenberg. A cornerstone of Magellan’s civic and charitable involvement is supporting women-forward initiatives.
