This very timely event will feature a candid conversation between Anne-Marie Slaughter, author of last summer’s controversial article, “Why Women Still Can’t Have It All” (The Atlantic, July/August 2012) and Deborah Epstein Henry, consultant and author of Law & Reorder: Legal Industry Solutions for Restructure, Retention, Promotion and Work/Life Balance (ABA, 2010).

TOPIC: INSPIRING WOMEN . . . . With the future of the legal profession uncertain and law students graduating with fewer jobs to fill, the questions of how, whether, when and if you can have a career and a family is more important than ever. This webcast will feature Anne-Marie Slaughter in a one-on-one interview and explore the challenges that arise when women pursue power in the workplace and have family responsibilities at home or other significant commitments outside the office. Attendees will leave the program armed with individual action steps they can take, as well as steps for their employers, that enable women to aspire and thrive - inside the office and out. DISTINGUISHED GUEST: ANNE-MARIE SLAUGHTER is the Bert G. Kerstetter '66 University Professor of Politics and International Affairs at Princeton University. From 2009–2011, she served as Director of Policy Planning for the United States Department of State. Upon leaving the State Department, she received the Secretary's Distinguished Service Award as well as a Meritorious Honor Award and a Joint Civilian Service Commendation Award. Prior to her government service, Dr. Slaughter was the Dean of Princeton's Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs. She is a frequent contributor to both mainstream and new media, publishing op-eds around the world and curating foreign policy news for over 40,000 followers on Twitter. Dr. Slaughter is the author of “Why Women Still Can't Have it All”, the most read article in The Atlantic's history of online publication. She appears regularly on CNN, the BBC, NPR, and PBS, among others, and lectures widely. She received a B.A. from Princeton, an M.Phil and D.Phil in international relations from Oxford, where she was a Daniel M. Sachs Scholar, and a J.D. from Harvard. Effective September 1, Dr. Slaughter will become President of the New America Foundation and she will transition to emeritus status at Princeton. She is married to Professor Andrew Moravcsik; they live in Princeton with their two sons.

INTERVIEWER: DEBORAH EPSTEIN HENRY is an expert and consultant on workplace restructuring, talent management, work/life balance, and retaining and promoting female lawyers. She is the author of LAW & REORDER: Legal Industry Solutions for Restructure, Retention, Promotion & Work/Life Balance, the #1 best selling 2011 ABA Flagship book. A former practicing litigator, Debbie is President of Flex-Time Lawyers LLC, a consulting firm well known for running Best Law Firms for Women with Working Mother magazine. Flex-Time Lawyers provides advisory, training and speaking services to law firms, companies and non-profits in the US, Canada and Europe.
