Harford County Public Library hosts its 4th Annual Women’s Summit on Tuesday, March 5, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Abingdon Library, 2510 Tollgate Road in Abingdon.
The summit brings together an array of women who will share their leadership journeys, practical tactics for how to advance more women in leadership positions, real-world tips on how to create healthy boundaries and more.
Speaking at the summit are Erin Moran, executive director of the Dr. Nancy Grasmick Leadership Institute, an organization dedicated to positively impacting the region and beyond through results-producing and ethical leadership development; Janet S. Currie, president of Bank of America, Greater Maryland Market and the market executive for the Local Markets Organization, who will be in conversation with Library CEO Mary Hastler; and Wendy S.

When women are empowered to lead, everyone benefits,” said Hastler, the Library’s CEO. “We are pleased to host this event for the community and thank our sponsors for helping us make it happen.
