2012 groundbreakers women in leadership summit program book

1GROUNDBREAKERS Women in Leadershipa ToiGo insTiTUTe sUmmiT

Welcome to Toigo’s second annual Toigo Groundbreaker’s Summit—a new type of investment conference where the investment is in you, your professional growth and achievements.

Based upon the success of our inaugural event, we’re continuing the focus on topics that address the agenda of women in leadership. Given the increased number of women-owned and managed investment funds and small businesses, this year’s dialogue will include entrepreneurship. We’ll also put the spotlight on public service, and the important role of women serving our communities in the public pension arena. Throughout the Groundbreakers agenda, we will feature speakers who illuminate philanthropy, social

impact investing, vision and aspiration, and the spirit of diversity—all core tenets of the Toigo mission.

As part of our All A Board initiative to promote increased diversity in the boardroom, we are pleased to present a complementary session co-moderated by CalPERS and CalSTRS on diversity in governance. During this afternoon session, we’ll take a closer look at the nominating and candidate evaluation process to help you think about your current profile and positioning for future board service. This will be followed by a networking reception providing all attendees a chance to meet leaders of different organizations—including non-profits, foundations and public companies—committed to finding the best board talent.

Groundbreakers builds on Toigo’s 20+ year track record and service to under-represented and unidentified talent. Our goal is to foster conversations and connections that transcend industry lines—an important element of leadership in today’s environment.

On behalf of the Pioneers of Progress event committee and the outstanding women who serve on the Toigo board, I thank TimeWarner for its support in hosting our 2013 gathering at its beautiful conference facility, our many corporate supporters, and the many non-profit organizations that helped promote Groundbreakers to their members.

Toigo’s All A Board is doing more than just making diverse talent accessible (through our online clearinghouse) —we’re also helping ensure diverse board candidates are prepared and ready to serve. We’re rolling out board training and educati on as well as developing thought leadership to keep the conversati on current.

Create an All A Board profi le to showcase your board aspirati ons and leadership experience. Highlight your interests and experience, post a bio and even a short video as a way to showcase your talent. It’s fast, easy—and free. You’ll also fi nd thought leadership, blogs, and events on board leadership—and more.

It’s ti me to get noti ced and get connected with public, private and non-profi t organizati ons seeking more diverse board talent. Toigo’s All A Board makes it happen.

Log on today.allaboard.intronetworks.com

Board diversity has been shown to improve corporate performance. The Diverse Director DataSource, also known as “3D”, is designed to be a clearinghouse for potenti al corporate director candidates with a special emphasis on a more diverse range of backgrounds, perspecti ves, skills and experience.

Interested candidates can register for inclusion in the database by creati ng an online profi le. Our staff will review completed profi le informati on for basic qualifi cati ons and accuracy. Approved candidate profi les will be included in relevant search reports once the review process is completed.

Shareowners, nominati ng committ ees and commercial executi ve/director search fi rms may search the combined database of potenti al diverse candidates and existi ng directors for individuals whose knowledge, skills and experience can bring fresh perspecti ve to a boardroom and help a company achieve long-term, sustainable growth.
