Ep 25 - Board Service & Senior Leadership w/ Coco Brown of The Athena Alliance

It’s a new year, and whether you are looking for a new, improved or same you, WWHL is here with more conversations to address just that! In today’s episode, we hear from Coco Brown, the founder and CEO of The Athena Alliance, a digital ecosystem and platform designed around community, learning and access to opportunity for the top women in business. Throughout this conversation we cover the many resources found through The Athena Alliance as well as Coco’s POV on how corporate governance boards are strategically evolving, including some of the new formalized recommendations addressing diversity on boards. We also discuss the challenges of being the “only”, whether at senior ranks within a company or when committing to board service. Learn about Coco’s impressive career journey, her mission to create a community she herself was craving (girl after my own heart!) and her killer negotiation years ago that turned her from a soon-to-be stay-at-home mom to the primary breadwinner for her family.
