The Providence Warwick Convention & Visitors Bureau is responsible for promoting some of the biggest cities in the smallest state in the country. Kristen Adamo is President & CEO, and "Chief Executive Officer" is not a title held by many women (As an example, among Fortune 500 companies, only about eight percent of CEOs are women.*). Kristen is one of the few. She's got a big job investing in a lot of venues and events, and she gets it done with a big team. As she's "leaned in" to her career, she's learned how to advocate for herself and for her staff. But 2020 presented new challenges for Kristen professionally and personally. The Covid-19 pandemic cancelled events, her team was forced to get smaller, and business owners and their employees were desperate for support.

How did she adapt? And how did she adjust as a single-girl-about-town, to someone who suddenly couldn't go anywhere? In this episode Kristen shares her resiliency. She offers her perspective on friendship and business dynamics for women without children. And she's opening up about an important and nurturing role she's played in a relationship she rarely speaks about. 

As a bonus, she's offered these three tips for women who are in the process of negotiating at work. Find it on our Instagram page: www.instagram.com/friendswithyounyb
