The inaugural Iacocca Leadership Speaker is Sylvia Acevedo, a trailblazing entrepreneur, business leader and engineer who started her career working in NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory and most recently served as CEO of the Girl Scouts of the USA. A believer in the transformative power of education, Acevedo is passionate about enabling the next generation of leaders to develop the skills and mindset they need to succeed – and make a difference – in an increasingly digital world.
Acevedo will join Richard Verma ’90, former U.S. ambassador to India and Lehigh trustee, to share what she’s learned as a leader in industries as varied as science, government, big tech and education; how she’s working to increase access for women and those of diverse backgrounds; and why she thinks it’s important to cultivate a global outlook.
The event is part of Founder's Weekend, an annual campus celebration commemorating Lehigh University founder Asa Packer. It is free!!!
