Bentley Students Organize Women in Leadership Panel
On Friday, March 21, three of our Upper School student-leaders (Liz '25, Asha '26, and Emma '25) organized an inspiring panel during Town Hall in honor of Women's History Month, entitled "Women in Leadership" and featuring four of the most influential women we know—who also happen to be Bentley parents. The presenters—Dean Jennifer Chatman P'25, Interim Dean and Paul J. Cortese Distinguished Professor of Management at the Haas School of Business; Ms. Celessa Baker P'31 & '36, Senior Director of Brand Marketing, Color (Makeup) at Sephora; Ms. Esi Minta-Jacobs P'26 & '26, Executive Vice President and Chief Administrative Officer at Asset Management firm Assetmark; and Professor Amanda Tyler P'25 & '27, Thomas David & Judith Swope Clark Professor of Constitutional Law at UC Berkeley School of Law—came to speak about the trajectory of their educations and careers, tough choices they've made along the way, and how they've overcome obstacles as they pursued their goals. This was a fascinating talk, and our guests were generous enough to spend additional time with students in a small group discussion after the panel. We are so thankful to these four women for coming in to spend time with us; it's a privilege to have leaders like these among us!
