This event provides opportunities to connect with and learn from those who are the best in their business. As we celebrate the “Athena” in each of us this year, we hope you gain a greater sense of purpose, learn skills to overcome obstacles, and are inspired by stories of empowerment. Today is about connecting with women who are on the same journey. Thank you f�� joining us! PRESENTED BY: HEROIC ENDEAVORS, EVERYDAY LIVES Welcome! As the Women’s Business Conference enters its third decade, we are proud that this has become the premiere women’s business event in the region. We want this to be an event that reverberates all year long. We do this by working hard to foster a sense of celebration, connection, empowerment and engagement – through our programming and speakers, and by recognizing ATHENA® and YPL ATHENA® Award winners who embody these characteristics. This year we’ve captured the spirit of Athena in our theme, “Heroic Endeavors, Everyday Lives.” The Greek goddess of wisdom, Athena was a master strategist with a calm temperament who fought for just reasons and created art with her hands and through her spirit in all that she accomplished. We celebrate the “Athena” in each of you, whether in the board room or the corner cubicle; in the spotlight or behind the scenes; in established companies or brave startups. Your heroic endeavor is what connects you and drives you. It’s what sets you apart and defines you. It’s what calls to you each day, and how you respond throughout life. To be an “Athena” is to be you, every day. Through storytelling, conversations and thoughtful exercises, today’s program will help you reflect on the heroic endeavors in your own lives, and challenge you to identify, define and embark on your personal and professional passages ahead. I’m so glad you are here with us today.

He has his neck tucked into his collar and an awkward smile plastered across his face. He and Corrie appear to be close and intimate, having fun with the selfie. The location where this photo was taken and how these two met each other is unclear. Corrie stated on her Facebook post, “Look who takes a great #Selfie - General Keith Alexander, the Cowboy of the NSA.” The photo was obtained from Facebook via Corrie Becker's account. Dated May 27th, 2014.1 Keith Brian Alexander served as Director of the National Security Agency (NSA) until 2013 and is now a retired four-star general. He was also Chief of the Central Security Service (CHCSS) and Commander of the U.S. Cyber Command.

  • 1 Apologia Speech and Analysis: General Petraeus and CIA Scandal
    1 Apologia Speech and Analysis: General Petraeus and CIA Scandal By: Lauralee Gilkey and Drusilla Muraibto Background On November 9, 2012 General Petraeus resigned from his position as Director of the CIA following a FBI investigation that revealed he had an affair with his biographer, Paula Broadwell. Shortly after Petraeus resigned, it was revealed that the FBI had been investigating Petraeus for some time. There were concerns about possible security leaks, which have lead to further investigations. Petraeus was a four-star general who led the military through the Afghanistan and Iraqi wars. In 2010 he retired from the military after 37 years of service and assumed the position of director of the CIA. Paula Broadwell was a fellow West Point graduate, Harvard graduate and had served the U.S. Army for 15 years. The pair met in 2006 when Petraeus addressed Broadwell’s class at Harvard. Later, she approached him about composing a book based on his wartime leadership. He agreed and by 2010 he had granted her free access, including lodging at his base in Kabul when he took control of Afghanistan. The investigation started when harassment allegations had been made against Broadwell. Broadwell was suspected of sending emails to Jill Kelley, a family friend of Petraeus, accusing her of engaging in an inappropriate relationship with him. The investigation began with a warrant to search through Broadwell’s emails. There the FBI found details of Petraeus and Broadwell’s affair. Both Petraeus and Broadwell were interviewed separately by the FBI in October and admitted to the affair. Both Petraeus and Broadwell were married at the time of the affair.
