[Film Screening] Defining Moments: Life & Leadership of Frances Hesselbein

Join Tisch College for a private screening of an upcoming documentary based on the groundbreaking work and leadership of Presidential Medal of Freedom recipient, Frances Hesselbein. A true "pioneer for women, volunteerism, diversity, and opportunity,” Hesselbein was one of the most important figures in the leadership movement, where her influence extended from nonprofit management to corporate boards to the U.S. Army. She was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, America’s highest civilian honor, for her leadership as CEO of Girl Scouts from 1976--1990, and was later appointed to two Presidential Commissions on National and Community Service. “Defining Moments” shares the extraordinary impact of Hesselbein’s work, while exploring how her ideas can help leaders today safeguard a democracy under threat.

A short panel discussion will follow the documentary screening. Refreshments will be provided. This event is open to the Tufts community, however registration is required.
