Learning from Leaders: A Conversation With Our Women Deans
Provost John Jackson will welcome all to this special Celebration with five of Penn’s women Deans: Sally Bachman (SP2), Sarah Banet-Weiser (Annenberg), Erika James (Wharton), Sophia Lee (Carey Law) and Katharine Strunk (GSE). For the first time in Penn's history, half of Penn’s 12 schools are led by women deans. Join us for an engaging conversation as they discuss their journeys to leadership and share insights on navigating the academic landscape. This is a not-to-miss opportunity to draw inspiration and insight from their diverse experiences.
The Penn Forum for Women Faculty and Gender Equity is proud to host this special event to celebrate and learn from these inspiring leaders as we also mark the accomplishments, promotions, and appointments of all women faculty at Penn.
