What 2007 Leadership Consortium participants have to say about the program:

"It was great to be in an environment where I was truly comfortable. It really helped me learn. I wasn't worried about not being heard or having to adjust myself to fit in with the "guys". I didn't feel separated but completely connected. I did things in this program I would never have done had I been with male colleagues. "
- Mary Beth Pittinger, Chubb

belcher

"Meeting with the other participants was one of the best parts of coming on this course, I have met some interesting and wonderful people both from [within my company] and from the other organizations and I will definitely be keeping in touch with many people from the course!"
- Helen Belcher, JPMC

Mary

"The past two weeks gave me great insights into leadership and opened up my mind to think much bigger than within one part of JPMC. It was a rare gift and greatly treasured! "
- Mary Kropcynski, JPMC

Meg

"Excellent program. Exceeded my expectations. I'm walking away with a network of incredible female executives... And I hope one day, I will be one of the female executives sitting on your panel talking to others. "
- Meg Hucle, JPMC

Mary

"I could not believe how much I wrote in the journal - from noting statements people made which really hit home, to noting my "ah-ha" moments, to noting ideas of how to implement these learnings back at work. I am really glad you made the journals part of the program. It gave me a place to reflect and time to internalize my learnings. "
- Mary Parsons, Chubb

Ford

"The ability to share your feelings in a safe environment and to talk about your [challenges] doesn't happen very much in the normal work place. "
- Joanna Ford, J & J
