The annual ATHENA Awards were held June 5th at the Buffalo Niagara Convention Center.
Ahead of the awards ceremony, 7 Eyewitness News Anchor Ashley Rowe moderated a panel discussion with all 14 finalists to discuss women in leadership roles.
The conversation moved through a variety of issues that women in executive roles face in the workforce, and highlighted some of the opportunities and challenges that future women in leadership roles will experience.
