This fall we welcome Dr. Lynn Perry Wooten, Simmons University’s ninth president and first African American to lead the prestigious private university. She will share with us her plans for leading the next generation of women into the future.
Dr. Lynn Perry Wooten joins Simmons University as the ninth president and first African American to lead the prestigious private university for women.
Prior to joining Simmons, Dr. Wooten worked for Cornell University as the David J. Nolan Dean and Professor of Management and Organization at the Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management. She has written two books, numerous journal articles and book chapters, and has led her own thriving clinical practice focused on providing leadership development, education, and training for various institutions.
Dr. Wooten is an innovative leader who specializes in crisis leadership, diversity and inclusion, and positive leadership. During a time in the world when we are facing both the largest health pandemic and movement for equality that we have seen in our lifetimes, it seems only fitting to be hearing from one of the newest leaders in our community who uses research to drive her work both in the classroom and as an administrator.
On October 15th we will welcome Dr. Wooten as she shares with us her goals and priorities for leading the next generation of women into the future, in a moderated discussion with Elisa van Dam, Vice President of Allyship and Inclusion for the Simmons University Institute for Inclusive Leadership.
This event is part of our Women’s Network and InfluenceHER series. Our Women’s Network isn’t a club you join, but a place where you belong – you’ll find a diverse group of more than 1,500 (and growing) women and male allies at all levels of their careers, from all backgrounds, sectors, industries, and professions, with energy for ensuring that Greater Boston becomes the best place for professional women to thrive. All identities welcomed and encouraged to attend.
