C-Suite Perspectives Series
Peer Group Leaders
Led by Coco Brown and Suja Chandrasekaran
This monthly series consists of discussions with prominent CEOs. This series is meant to inspire others to see how the path to becoming a CEO can be varied, how CEOs come from a wide range of backgrounds and life experiences, and that CEOs carry a range of leadership styles and personalities. These salons highlight CEOs from a variety of backgrounds, both in terms of career and societal demographics. The secondary purpose of this series is to reinforce the trust society is putting in business leaders over all others realms of leadership. Beyond discussing their stories to the top, these salons touch on how these CEOs lead, and what they are thinking about at a broad societal level.

The more senior you get, the harder it can be to find the right development opportunities. That’s why Athena has been such an important investment in the women of Autodesk. Athena has allowed me to bring valuable external perspectives to Autodesk, provide me a more holistic view of the business, and was instrumental in moving me up into the C- Suite and Boardroom
Amy Bunszel, EVP of Design at Autodesk
The stories I heard and the women I connected to in the Athena network helped me have the confidence to push forward and get promoted to the C-suite at a public company. Athena helped me articulate my value clearly and have the confidence to ask for what I wanted. It is an incredible community with high-quality programming and is a huge value add to the women at Quinstreet.
Ashley Heller, CHRO at Quinstreet
Athena Alliance is one of the best ventures in self-development that I have done. The aspiration and connection provided me with entry into a world I didn't even know existed. I think every senior leader at Microsoft ought to have access to an experience like this.
