Presented by SmartStop Self Storage, this week's episode of SheEO Lead-In, we listen to our host, Rebecca Jones, engaging in a thought-provoking discussion with Wendy Forkas, CEO, Adjoin.
Wendy Forkas, CEO of Adjoin, discusses her career journey and the challenges faced as a female leader in the nonprofit sector. She highlights her organization's three divisions: Catalyst, Veterans, and Path Now, which provides services for individuals with developmental disabilities, veterans, and those with disabilities, respectively. Wendy emphasizes the importance of standing by personal values, embracing change, and not fearing the unknown. She shares her experiences with gender biases and the significance of role models, particularly her mother. Wendy also touches on the evolving needs of individuals with autism and the ongoing efforts to address homelessness among veterans.
