KEYNOTE

Cat O’Shaughnessy Coffrin

Own Your Voice. Expand Your Influence.

What if the qualities that make you different are the very things that set you apart as a leader?

A corporate survivor-turned-agitator, Cat O’Shaughnessy Coffrin challenges conventional ideas of professional success and what it takes to be an effective leader.

With a blend of strategic insight, personal storytelling and humor, Cat explores how women can communicate their value, build their influence and create careers that reflect who they are.

Her message is a reminder that leadership doesn't require fitting a mold. It starts with understanding what you bring to the table and having the confidence to own it.
