Our 2027 Women’s Leadership Luncheon celebrates Interculturality. At its core it is more than diversity—it is relationship. An intentional relationship where we encounter each other and with an open heart allow those encounters to shape us and deepen our shared purpose, calling us beyond coexistence into connection; moving beyond race and ethnicity—interculturality includes our language, traditions, values, faith, upbringing, and lived experiences that shape who we are and how we relate to others. We are invited to consider how we live this out every day: in how we interact, how we lead, and how we create spaces where every voice is valued.
The Women’s Leadership Luncheon is the School Sisters of Notre Dame (SSND) annual event that takes place in March, during National Women’s History Month. The Luncheons will be held in Dallas, Milwaukee, St. Louis and St. Paul, Minnesota.
We look forward to your sponsorship! It will continue to support women leaders in our community.
