2026 GWI Leadership Breakfast

Reimagining Your Workforce: Talent, Leadership, and Organizations in the AI Age

Business leaders gathered at The Yale Club in New York City for the 2026 Girls With Impact Leadership Forum, exploring how AI is reshaping the workplace—and what it will take to prepare the next generation of talent and leaders.

The morning featured an inspiring keynote and engaging executive conversation with:

• Brittny Cantor, Global Agentic Commerce Lead for OpenAI Business Group, Accenture

• Michael Ehret, SVP & Chief People Officer, Walmart International

• Claudia Pici Morris, Senior Client Partner & North American CEO and Board Succession Solutions Leader, Korn Ferry

• Jaimi Goodfriend, Head of Investment Professional Development and Director of Point72 Academy, Point72

We were also proud to honor Eagle Point Credit with our 2026 Corporate Impact Award and GWI graduate Silvana Vazquez with our 2026 NextGen Impact Award, presented in partnership with Invisible Tech.

A heartfelt thank-you to our generous sponsors, inspiring speakers, and all attendees for making this year's Leadership Forum a tremendous success—and for helping us advance our mission to equip the next generation of women leaders with the skills, confidence, and connections to thrive.
