Happy New Year: The Power To Lead in 2019 Is Yours

Dear Leader,

Happy New Year!

Imagine for one moment what the world will be like when we reach that goal—how much healthier and happier it will be for men, women and society.

No more need for women to say #MeToo when men and women share equal power and leadership. More prosperous companies and better government. Equality. Justice. Fairness. Equal pay for equal work. Gender parity. What else is in your vision?

That’s Take The Lead’s mission. You can make it a reality when you donate a year-end tax deductible contribution. Together, we’ll make even greater strides for women in 2019.

Read more here about what we accomplished in 2018 because of your support.

For our first Virtual Happy Hour of the New Year, we are thrilled to bring you Amy Emmerich, Chief Content Officer of Refinery29, and Mira Lowe, President-Elect of Journalism & Women Symposium and Director of the Innovation News Center at the University of Florida. These are women you definitely want to know! They’ll join co-hosts Gloria Feldt, President & Co-Founder of Take The Lead, and Reshma Gopaldas, Vice President, Video Programming at SheKnows Media.

You will learn and have a chance to discuss:

--How women can lead the change to reach pay and leadership parity in any sector, with special emphasis on journalism and the media business overall
--The impact of media on our self image and confidence as women
