A now biennial Women and Power conference takes place at the end of September. Keynote talks, panel conversations, breakout workshops and entertainment feature a number of women who lead in their respective spaces. This year, the Omega Women’s Leadership Center, at Omega Institute in Rhinebeck, New York, is putting together “Women & Power: Gathering Our Strength.” Carla Goldstein is president of Omega Institute and cofounder of the Omega Women’s Leadership Center. I spoke with her about what’s in store for this year’s conference.

That was Carla Goldstein, president of Omega Institute and co-founder of the Omega Women’s Leadership Center. “Women & Power: Gathering Our Strength” takes place September 27-29 at Omega in Rhinebeck, New York.

On the last 51%, we brought you an interview, courtesy of WBFO, with Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Before the interview with the dean of the University at Buffalo School of Law, Justice Ginsburg received an honorary degree from the school and offered, in part, these remarks.
