Managing Multiple Roles at the Top

October 10, 2019

Description: Managing Multiple Roles at the Top. It’s lonely at the top. After reaching the coveted C-suite, General Counsel often find themselves without a confidant or ally. The redistribution of roles that led to the GC’s promotion may mean her sponsors and colleagues change. She also may struggle with how to continue to mentor the women rising through the ranks with so many women clamoring for her guidance and limited time. At this event, we will wrestle with the balance of the woman general counsel in managing her corporate reporting relationships while keeping her finger on the pulse of the daily goings on in her department, especially among the junior women she has cultivated along the way. Attendees will leave the discussion with wisdom of how to be an effective multifaceted in-house leader who brings value to the business, her team as well as herself.

DEH Speaker Series Event ~ The Psychology of Good People: Debbie Epstein Henry conducts fireside chat with Dolly Chugh

August 29, 2019

Wednesday, January 8, 2020 from 8-10:00 AM EST and by webcast Paul, Weiss has graciously offered to provide a copy of Dolly’s book, The Person You Mean to Be: How Good People Fight Bias and breakfast for all in-person attendees. Register for this event TOPIC:  The Psychology of Good People.  While it may sound surprising, the path to becoming a good person means letting go of trying to be a good person.  Indeed, many of us work so hard to protect our good person identity that it interferes with our ability to learn from our mistakes to actually become better people.  At this event, New York University social psychologist and TED Speaker, Dr. Dolly Chugh, will illuminate how to achieve a higher standard of being a “goodish person” who still makes mistakes but learns to be better and do better.  With probing questions posed by author and workplace expert Debbie Epstein Henry, Dolly will share findings of her acclaimed book, The Person You Mean to Be:  How Good People Fight Bias.  Dolly will weave together stories and science to provide an entertaining and thought-provoking discussion.  She will inform on unconscious and systemic bias and a sometimes unusual path towards building a more inclusive community.  Dolly will leave us inspired with powerful messages and clear takeaways to enable us to grow to become a better person — where it matters most. DISTINGUISHED GUEST:  Dolly Chugh is an award-winning professor at the NYU Stern School of Business where she teaches MBA courses in leadership and management.  Her research focuses on the psychology of good people.  Her first book, The Person You Mean to Be:  How Good People Fight Bias, came out last year and received rave praise from Morehouse President David Thomas, NYU Law School professor Kenji Yoshino, and the legendary Billie Jean King, amongst many others.  The book was one of six finalists for the Fall 2018 Next Big Idea Club selection, curated by Susan Cain, Malcolm Gladwell, Adam Grant, and Daniel Pink.  Dolly gave a TED Talk last year which was named one of the 25 Most Popular TED Talks of 2018 and currently has over 3.6 million views. Dolly received her undergraduate degree from Cornell University and her MBA and PhD from Harvard University.
