Tina Talks

In 2023, Tina Talks brought women together to learn how to succeed in business and entrepreneurship from 6 of the region’s top female leaders. This year’s theme was #LeadHERship and promoted the value of self-worth, commitment to learning, and adaptability toward adversity. Guests also had a chance to network with peers and advance their careers with game-changing connections in an afternoon cocktail social at The Monroe.
