One of the Sports Illustrated 100 most influential figures of all time, Sarah shares essential leadership lessons from her journey to the top of a male-dominated industry and vital insights on shattering the glass ceiling in the world of professional sports.

Interested in learning more about CREW Charlotte’s Authentic Leadership Program? Join us for a casual meet and greet with Authentic Leadership Program alumni to discuss the program and answer questions.

In continued support of our YWCA partnership, CREW Charlotte will be holding an open discussion event, Until Justice Just Is (UJJI), formally known as Stand Against Racism. As part of the YWCA’s racial justice efforts, they want to continue education efforts in our community.  As we activate our community we invite you to join us again for our Stand + Commit! As a reminder, UJJI  is an annual series of events held at YWCAs across the country that raise awareness about the negative impact of institutional and structural racism in our communities and build community among those who work for racial justice. This year, the YWCA will focus on mental health and racial trauma. We are inviting CREW members and friends to come together and discuss the different types of racism and how each is displayed in various environments. The open discussion that CREW Charlotte will hold alongside the YWCA will provide a facilitator’s guide for you and your colleagues to have a discussion about the different types of racism and how they manifest in our world. The guide will also invite your group to put together a list of questions to ask each other as a way of supporting one another when racism does manifest. This tool can be used to discuss acts of racism displayed on the national stage as well as in various spaces.
