I am looking forward to learning and engaging with you all at this incredible Annual Conference. I had the tremendous privilege of visiting all of UPCEA’s Regions this year. I am grateful to have personally met so many of you, and for the myriad ways that we worked together to elevate our profession. Many of you heard parts of my story this year, and I thank you for listening and for hearing with your hearts. I also thank you for the countless ways that you each see people—people like me—and their unique pathways, and then build innovative programs to meet them where they are. Thank you for opening the doors to our institutions for folks for whom doors may be heavier, more complicated, or seemingly inaccessible. UPCEA benefits us all in so many ways. It teaches us about our field. It encourages us to be leaders of the highest knowledge and character. It celebrates you as an individual for who you are and what you bring to the world, and empowers you to do the same for others.

  • Board Diversity Program Around Three Pillars: Policy, Talent and Advocacy
    Visibility Counts The LGBTQ+ Board Leadership Opportunity Introduction from the CEO Seven years ago, I got a call from Mario Palumbo, a senior out leader in the real estate industry who has been active in the LGBTQ+ movement for many years. Mario had a very direct question for me: “Why aren’t there more out leaders on corporate boards?” “Because LGBTQ+ leaders don’t count as diverse to companies and search firms, and currently there are no organizations working to change that,” was my quick response. “Well then,” he said, “it seems to me that you need to start one.” At that time, Out Leadership was only three years old, we had expanded global CEO summits to Europe, Asia and Australia, and I thought that adding a new program alongside our OutNEXT and OutWomen talent programs was a bridge too far for my small team. But Mario was persistent and gave a great deal of his time and access Todd G. Sears to his network to help us get off the ground. Other gay leaders quickly volunteered Founder & CEO to help (including the incomparable Matt Fust, who has donated 25% of his time for Out Leadership the past five years), and Quorum was born. I must add that Quorum would not have been possible without early support from the Arcus Foundation, the David Bohnett Foundation and Susan Angele of KPMG’s Board Leadership Center, Quorum’s first corporate sponsor and its biggest evangelist for the past seven years. I’m proud to share that in 2020, Goldman Sachs, Egon Zehnder and Diligent have joined KPMG in sponsoring Quorum, with additional in-kind support from Equilar.
