An incredible evening and very moving to look back on the body of work and impact this group has had, including my former Amex CMO (and CEO) take the stage again. And of course the host with the most Ross Martin
I had the fortune of running into Linda Boff at POSSIBLE in the hallway who I just happened to recognize from her earlier session. Extremely kind and humble, we were talking about how we managed through spinoffs ie at both our companies. No surprise as to why she's one of the great titans of industry, if that was my 1st impression; I can only imagine the folks who've known her for years.
Such an incredible night to honor these legends who were inducted!
