Special Invitation from the Wharton Alumnae Founders & Funders Association

robert-friedman

Shellye Archambeau, #WhartonWoman and one of tech’s first Black female CEOs. Growing up Shellye faced more hurdles than most as she managed her personal and professional responsibilities while climbing the ranks at IBM and in her subsequent roles as CEO at Blockbuster.com, MetricSystem and a board member at Verizon, Nordstrom, Roper Technologies and Okta.

In her book, Unapologetically Ambitious, that comes out this October, Shellye discovers that ambition alone is not enough to achieve success as she shares practical tools and approaches to employ right now, including concrete steps to: capitalize on the power of planning, developing financial literacy, building your network and integrating work, marriage, parenthood and self-care. Join us for a talk on Wednesday, September 9th from 3:00-4:00pm ET and pre-order your copy of Unapologetically Ambitious.

“In a world that too often tells women, especially Black women, to stay small, keep quiet, and know their limits, this book says otherwise.” - Sheryl Sandburg, COO at Facebook.
