Laurie LachanceLeading from Behind With Humility and a Collaborative Spirit

Laurie will share a bit about her leadership journey  and how her deep passion for Maine led her to Thomas College. She’ll also reflect on the special challenges of being a female leader and the many lessons she has learned along the way. Her hope is to inspire you to find your unique passion and purpose, to dream big and to lead in a manner that keeps you whole – mind, body and spirit!
