The event brought together women leaders, professionals, and golf community members for a powerful conversation about leadership, purpose, and driving change in complex systems.

Dr. Kornegay, a respected executive, educator, and advocate, shared personal reflections from her book—offering insight into what it takes to lead boldly, navigate challenges, and inspire others. Her journey through corporate and academic leadership served as both a case study and a call to action for women seeking to make a lasting impact.
