Patricia Diaz Dennis , retired senior vice president and assistant general counsel at AT&T and executive-in-residence in the college’s Center for Professional Excellence, will keynote the symposium.

She will share career and leadership advice and provide tips on ways to successfully interact with senior leadership in the boardroom.

“As part of the college’s Diversity, Equity and Inclusion programming, we are proud to sponsor this event empowering both future and current women business leaders,” said Pamela C. Smith , interim dean of the Alvarez College of Business and Bodenstedt Chair. “Patricia Diaz Dennis will provide an educational and aspirational message for our students as well as alumni, business and community leaders.”

The symposium will be held in the UTSA Student Union Denman Room 2.01.28. A networking reception follows the lecture, which is free and open to the public.
