In 2025, Egon Zehnder proudly hosted a Leaders & Daughters event in Madrid, bringing together leaders and their daughters to celebrate the International Women’s Day and advance conversations on shaping a better future for the next generation.
The evening featured a panel of distinguished leaders, moderated by María Gómez:
- Cristina García-Peri
- Cristina Ruiz
- Cristina de Parias Halcón
The discussions sparked during the event were both personal and thought-provoking, covering themes such as identity and leadership, work-life balance, resilience, and the future. Panelists shared powerful reflections on focusing on strengths, avoiding self-imposed limits, and making courageous life choices. The conversation also emphasized that women do not need to mirror male leadership styles to succeed, and that choosing one’s path, including career and family decisions, requires both clarity and confidence.
We extend our sincere thanks to our panelists for their openness and to all our guests for their thoughtful participation. Together, these conversations continue to inspire action and reflection far beyond the evening.
Together, we continue to empower the next generation of leaders to embrace their authenticity and shape meaningful change.
The discussions sparked during the event were not only captivating but also incredibly motivating for us and our guests. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to each of you for your invaluable participation. Together, let's empower the next generation of leaders to embrace their authenticity and drive positive change across our families, communities, businesses, and beyond.
