#PBWC2025 Speaker & Executive Communication Coach Melissa Schwartz shared advice we need to hear: “What we care about isn’t always what senior leaders care about...we need to front load our content so we get to the point quickly & clearly." Lead with why & what to make an impact.

Carla Peterman, @PGE4Me’s EVP, Corporate Affairs & Chief Sustainability Officer, reminds us: “Trust that voice in your head & your heart & know that if you’ve got a community you can rely on it’s worth taking that risk.” With support, risks become possibilities. #WeWill #PBWC2025

#PBWC isn’t a luxury—it’s a lifeline. “This community is where new leaders are born; where mid-career professionals find their second wind; and where women have climbed the ladder and have turned back to lend a hand.” – Supervisor Jackie Speier, PBWC Founder at #PBWC2025 #WeWill
