From geopolitical shifts and supply chain disruptions to leadership scandals and climate impacts, executives and boards have rarely navigated a more complex, risky as well as opportunity-laden environment.
This Peer Group is facilitated by global governance, risk, and ESGT expert, Andrea Bonime-Blanc, a global expert in governance, risk, and ESGT (Environmental, Social, Governance, and Technology). With extensive experience as a board member and strategic advisor, Andrea has assisted numerous boards in effectively addressing their most intricate challenges. In each meeting, she will utilize current real-life stories, taken directly from recent headlines, as case studies and teachable moments for engaging discussions.
Chatham House Rule: What is said in this group, stays in this group. Sessions are not recorded and will not be part of the library.
What to expect: -A topical theme each meeting with guided questions -We may invite some expert guests selectively -No slides/decks or AV and a loosely structured dialogue
Insightful conversations for topics such as: -ESG battles & skirmishes in the United States – How should my company/board deal with the political and reputational challenges? -Disney’s ongoing battle with Florida’s governor – What would you do if you served on Disney’s board? -The Silicon Valley Bank implosion: Applying the ESG and risk governance lenses -Elon Musk’s governance of Twitter and Tesla: Generative AI strategy and governance - good, bad, or ugly for your business? -The impact of China/US geopolitical tensions on US business in and with China – What is a company/board to do?

Learn about the most pressing topics facing executives today in an intimate, yet casual, virtual setting. Hosted by board directors and leaders from the world's top brands.
Gather with Athena members in your area for a casual, in-person Meetup. These are planned by request and hosted by Athena members in various cities. If you're interested in hosting and/or joining a meetup in the future, reach out to the Member Success Team and let them know.
We have an incredible community of female leaders at Athena and we want to bring you closer together! Join a Peer Group and build a network of peers you can engage with for guidance, lessons learned and insights around a shared interest. Choose a topic that most interests you or drop in and out of multiple peer groups as it suits you best. You’ll find at least one peer group available to join every week. Each live session goes for one hour, no preparation is needed, just show up as you are. We look forward to seeing you there!
A Learning Circle is an opportunity to connect with a small group of other Athena members in a focused yet casual setting, creating accountability around targeted learning to assist you in achieving your goals. Over the course of 6 sessions, club members will meet every 2 weeks to participate in an organic, peer-led discussion of the session's "chapters" consisting of 1-2 Athena salons which are to be reviewed on your own prior to the group session. When joining, members are committing to completing all 6 sessions.
Typically led by one of Athena's coaches, networking events provide members an opportunity to meet one another in a smaller intimate and virtual setting.
These are typically in-person events led by Coco and our partnering companies on topics that are relevant to the industry and audience of our business partners.
A workshop is an interactive session for members to actively practice something, such as their pitch. These sessions typically involve breakout rooms, member to member feedback and are not recorded.
For members new to Athena looking for ways to engage, these bi-weekly orientations led by an Athena Member Success Manager, provide a live tour of Athena, member success insights, and a chance to get questions answered.
Athena customizes virtual learning events with expert business leaders tailored to a unique company’s needs. These events cultivate cross-functional community, development, and learning across the partner organization.
Athena listens and we're always adding new event types and opportunities for members to engage. See what new events we are currently offering members.
