Leadership and Legacy: Reflections on Women’s Leadership with Secretary Madeleine K. Albright and the Honorable Helen Clark

As we reflect on an unprecedented time in our collective history, we must take this opportunity to learn from the experiences of extraordinary women leaders who have paved the way for women to take the helm of the highest leadership positions in the world.

Albright, former United States secretary of state, chair of Albright Stonebridge Group, and chair of Albright Capital Management LLC. Honorable Helen Clark, former prime minister of New Zealand, former administrator of the United Nations Development Program, chair of the Independent Commission on Pandemic Preparedness, and patron of the Helen Clark Foundation.
