Looking for resources for women in business?

YCEA Announces Launch of the Professional Women’s Alliance

by Kate Gaudet, YCEA, Manager, Member Services

T

he Professional Women’s Alliance (PWA) is a newly formed division of the York County Economic Alliance’s Alliance Academy program that heightens awareness and presents resources in our community that celebrate, support, promote and advance the success of women in business. The PWA was created in partnership and collaboration with the YCEA, ATHENA International, York College’s Women’s Business Center Organization, and the YWCA York.

There is an online resource center that is broken down into categories of Events, Education, Mentoring, Volunteering & Philanthropy, and Resources. Each of these categories cover various offerings within York County that can help women at any stage of their career with any business or professional need that they may have.

Our goal as the YCEA is to be the one stop shop and to connect women with any resource that they need.

By participating in this program, attendees will learn about the ATHENA Leadership Model® and how these attributes can be applied to become successful leaders in both professional and personal lives. The roundtable discussions, led by an ATHENA, will give attendees a chance to have informal conversations about leadership with proven leaders.

Participating ATHENAs include: Barb Carbaugh, Deb Goodling-Kime, Jody Keller, Dianne Moore, Lea Nadler, Lynda Randall, Jane Schussler, Debbie Simon, Debra Stock and Jean Treuthart.

Don’t miss out on this great opportunity to gain insight from some of York County’s top business women. There is no cost to attend, but pre-registration is required. This event is geared toward women in any stage of their career looking for leadership development opportunities. Seats are limited and sponsorships are available.

Click here to register or contact Kate Gaudet at kgaudet@ ycea-pa.org for more information.

The Launch Event of the PWA is the “Women’s Leadership Forum – presented by ATHENA Recipients” and is on Tuesday, September 27 from 11:30 a.m. – 2 p.m. at the Wyndham Garden York.

I Remember Thinking..

by Kenetha Hansen, YCEA, Vice President, Economic Alliance

Coni Wolf VP Business Development York Container Company

I remember thinking…

I want to be like her.

W

hen asked recently to pen an article focused on local business women, it immediately prompted me to think of the many female business women and community leaders with whom I’ve had the honor of working throughout my first two and half decades in economic development. I am grateful to all of these women who have influenced me professionally and personally. While space doesn’t accommodate me to acknowledge all of them, I am delighted to pay homage to several of these remarkable women.

In the early days of my career, or the years better known as the early 1990’s, I facilitated a loan for a company then called General Graphic Services, now known as GGS

6

Information Services. I recall working with Rita Hoover, GGS’s CFO, who I found to be amongst few (at the time) female chief financial officers in York County. Rita was empowered by GGS President, Paul Kilker, who believed fiercely in Rita’s prowess. Rita exemplified (and still exemplifies) toughness and grace simultaneously.

I remember thinking…

I want to emulate her qualities.

Along my professional path, I’ve had the pleasure to engage on multiple occasions with Coni Wolf via her role as VP, Business Development of York Container Company, as well as during her service as a York County Economic Development Corporation board member.

Coni immediately struck me as articulate, persuasive, and giving with her time and expertise.

YORK COUNTY ECONOMIC ALLIANCE www.ycea-pa.org

LEAD I am still captivated by Coni’s knowledge of how corrugated packaging is produced by York Container.

Coni subscribes to the “do good” philosophy and has served York County in many capacities via her boardship in many community organizations.

I remember thinking…

I want to command my profession as she does.

I’ve had the pleasure to work occasionally with Donna Kreiser, Esq. in tax-exempt issuances in which Donna served as bond counsel. Donna is part of the Financial Services and Public Finance Group of McNees Wallace & Nurick, LLC. Many find the interpretation of federal tax code to be an arduous task. While that may be true, Donna conveys bond law in a sophisticated, self-assured and yet easy to understand manner.

I remember thinking…

I want to convey information with her poise, clarity and confidence.

Rita, Coni and Donna are definitely forces of nature.

They are a few of the countless women whom I admire and have attempted to emulate. And, after some thought, I can’t say this is due to their gender; I admire them because of their respective strengths, character, professionalism, and business savvy.

Hopefully some of their attributes have rubbed off on me – even just a little bit.

Steps to Success

by Mandy Arnold, President, Gavin Advertising

A

s an entrepreneur, I’ve learned not to define our company’s success by profit alone.

The dynamics within an organization’s culture take intense nurturing, requiring decision making that is not always in plain sight. Priorities change, making intense agility and comfort with change a requirement for entrepreneurship. Growing from one person to 23 in less than five years can challenge even the best team. Through those challenges we’ve not only grown, we’ve grown up. It’s been surprising to us that the lessons we’ve learned along the way have also translated into how we help our clients with branding and market strategy by applying an understanding of how to build trusted relationships.

This checklist has helped me focus on what is important, guiding decisions in the process of building a true team and defining success for Gavin. For me, success is seeing a team embrace their full capabilities, respectfully pushing each other for success and delivering work that makes us all proud. It comes down to five core areas of focus that I think are worth sharing.

Know your core competencies. Focus on your strengths as a leader, a team and a business. Build your team and business based on managing strengths.

8

Remove the clutter.

Have a clear message.

If a relationship feels heavy, it’s likely carrying a burden that requires attention.

Always have honest conversations. Never lie, never cheat and always be fair.

Get comfortable with discomfort. Know when to have the tough conversations. Never let the discomfort of a reaction delay the need to address an issue.

YORK COUNTY ECONOMIC ALLIANCE www.ycea-pa.org

Know the numbers and the people. The balance sheet and the team culture should hold equal value in the organization.

Balancing Career & Community: A Conversation with Anne Druck

by Katie Caples, YCEA, Director, Business Outreach”

A

nne Druck was born and raised in York County. She has served in nonprofit leadership positions for over 25 years; most currently as President of the York County Convention & Visitors Bureau.

In your many roles, what have you learned about balance?

Achieving balance is challenging because of our many responsibilities. Mine are as a wife, mother, daughter, sister, friend, aunt, leader, employer, volunteer, etc.

Balance is not static; it’s a state of handling priorities and opportunities, as well as keeping the things that are most important in focus.

12

I had great examples from hard-working grandparents and parents, and have a wonderful husband. He is president of a third-generation family business. We often collaborate on business challenges; and we laugh a lot, which makes the balancing act a little easier.

Is this where you thought you would end up?

While non-profit leadership was not my early career goal, I was lucky to have been in the right places at the right times surrounded by many positive influences.

Leading York County’s tourism industry is an honor not only for the size of the industry, which generates almost $1 billion of visitor spending annually, but also for the wonderful people that comprise our industry.

YORK COUNTY ECONOMIC ALLIANCE www.ycea-pa.org

CONNECT

Over the course of your career, what are you most proud of professionally? Why? Teamwork. Tourism is a competitive industry, and we have maximized the economic benefits of tourism expenditures in York County by working within our community as a professional and sophisticated destination marketing team.

You are involved in many community initiatives; how do you go about selecting which opportunities to invest your time and talents?

This year, I am serving as campaign chair for the United Way of York County. I am honored to have been considered for this position. Meeting with business leaders and volunteers who give of time, talents and treasure to make our community a better place is energizing. I enjoy supporting efforts that make a difference in our community.

When you think of York, what comes to mind?

A conversation with

Samm Smeltzer

by Katie Caples, YCEA, Director, Business Outreach Samm has set out on a journey to achieve the most effective style of management and leadership within the workplace.

She has over a decade of experience in human resource management, training and education, including roles with two U.S. based retail companies and a large Central PA Healthcare System. Samm’s experience combined with her desire to educate and engage others resulted in the creation of Leadership Arts Associates.

What does balance mean to you?

Balance to me means “inner peace” in other words your ability to take care of you and do what you are meant to do in life.

Is this where you thought you would end up?

Absolutely not – I had always pictured myself as the VP of HR for a large organization now I partner with them.

How do you spend most of your time?

It is pretty much a 50/50 split, working with clients and designing new programs/services. I am a creative at heart, go figure, and cannot help to give into my creative side regularly.

It is what keeps me motivated on a daily basis.

Samm is certified by the HR Certification Institute as a PHR and by the Society for Human Resource Management as a SHRM-CP. She has earned multiple awards, including the 2013 Organizational Learning & Development Educator of the Year and Penn State’s 2015 Outstanding Graduate Student in Training and Development.

Over the course of your career, what have you learned about leadership, entrepreneurship and mentoring others?

What are you most proud of?

It is about being vulnerable and connection.

Leadership Arts has become an organization that represents something bigger than I ever dreamed, it truly is about individual professional empowerment.

For more information about Samm or Leadership Arts Associates, please visit www.leadership-arts.org.

What do you love most about York?

It is the small town that is within 3 hours to everything. I feel like I get to see the country while still maintaining a hometown feel.
