Alliance of Channel Women (ACW), a nonprofit organization dedicated to accelerating the growth of female technology channel leaders, announced that channel exec-turned-career leadership coach, Rema Lolas will deliver the keynote at its ACWConnect Live! networking event. Lolas – an ACW member and the founder/CEO of Unstoppable Leadership – will deliver the keynote at the Channel Futures MSP Summit (Sep. 16-19) at the Georgia World Conference Center in Atlanta, Georgia.
ACWConnect Live! kicks off the MSP Summit at 4-7 p.m., September 16, and will focus on strategies for advancing careers and opportunities for women in the channel.
Lolas’ “Own Your Journey” keynote serves as a wakeup call for women to take ownership of their lives and write their own stories. In her address, Lolas will share ways to overcome fears, limiting beliefs, unhealthy narratives and habituated behaviors to achieve our career goals and live our best lives.
“It’s easy to live a life dictated by societal expectations or familial pressures,” said Lolas. “We often have an ‘aha’ moment, realizing our current path doesn’t align with what truly lights us up, leading to burnout and overwhelm.”
Following her keynote, Lolas will lead a career planning workshop and a keynote panel with channel women who will share their stories about challenges, wins and lessons learned.
Lolas’ own story is of a long tech channel career in which she earned coveted regional and global leadership positions that also led to burnout and chronic fatigue. That experience inspired her to transform leadership development through an innovative approach that strives for outstanding results while honoring individual well-being as the founder and CEO of Unstoppable Leadership.
ACWConnect’s event will also include networking and engaging programming such as:
- Welcoming remarks from ACW president, Mayka Rosales-Peterson
- Free headshots for social media
- Networking opportunities
- Raffle prizes
- Swag bags
