Tonight I’ll be live blogging from the networking reception hosted by the Network of Executive Women. Very appropriately, the theme of the evening is “Leadership in a Virtual World.”
The moderator is Shon Gables, host of the Black Enterprise Business Report.
The room is packed, and there’s a buzz of networking, forks clanking and laughter.
I’ve been to a NEW event before and, just as sure as these ladies (and some men) are chatting now, they’ll deep dive into the agenda shortly.
At the last NEW event I attended, Lisa Gersh of Oxygen Networks was the keynote, and she bought a high level of approachability and realism to women who work hard every day. She talked about how there really is no such thing as balance and how women should embrace the imbalance.
I agree. People often tell me that they see me everywhere, and they askwhether I ever take a break. Believe you me, I know how to cut the cords and let my hair down. 
Anyway, we’re about to get started . . . I’ll be back.
