Congratulations to the winners pictured (left to right): Steve Tolmie of Quartzy and Debbie Segl of Scientific Industries, tied and both received a complimentary registration to the 2022 LPA Spring Meeting in Austin, Texas. Jerry O'Connor of Quartzy got 2nd place and Patti Mancino of Cytiva won 3rd place. They all received a complimentary LPA wine tumbler for their efforts! Fran Hutson of MilliporeSigma is the Chair of the LPA Women's Forum Committee and is pictured with the winners.
Special thanks to the Women's Forum Committee members for supporting this important initiative within the LPA! The activity was designed to encourage participation with both men and women by requiring a signature next to a random fact that applied to a female attendee. Finding signatures led to discussions of inclusive leadership within each members’ organizations, while providing fun in the learning more about individual members.
