Pioneering General Counsel Mary Ann Hynes to host a candid Vanguard Network discussion on "My 3 Biggest Mistakes That Have Made Me a Better Leader"

NEW YORK, March 8, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Vanguard Network, which uniquely supports C-suite members -- including General Counsels -- in building their leadership capabilities, today announced its first "Learning From Experience" virtual discussion. The one-hour session with legendary legal officer Mary Ann Hynes will take place on March 15 from 3 to 4 pm Eastern Time.

Hynes was the first female GC of a Fortune 500 company, counseled 17 CEOs, and is now a Senior Counsel at Dentons. She will candidly share her biggest mistakes along the way and how they made her a better leader.

The highly interactive session will be confidential, with participants encouraged to share their own "war stories." The dialogue will be valuable to both GCs and C-suite leaders.
