The Tennessee Sister Society Chapter of the Global Women’s Leadership Network is honored to virtually host Teresa Freeborn on Wednesday, Oct. 9, at 3 p.m. CT/4 p.m. ET.
Teresa is a credit union leader, a long-time advocate for women and author of “Suits and Skirts: Game On! The Battle for Corporate Power.” Before writing the book, Teresa served as president of Kinecta Federal Credit Union in Manhattan Beach, Calif., the 35th largest credit union in the nation. She is also a champion for the World Council of Credit Unions (WOCCU). She was an inaugural member of WOCCU’s Global Women’s Leadership Network and served as its chair while she was at Kinecta Federal Credit Union.
In “Suits and Skirts: Game On!” Teresa establishes unequivocally that there is a corporate problem of inequality, even if the men in the C-suites and boardrooms don’t think so. She shows men how they consciously or unconsciously hold women back. And, more importantly, how to change this corporate culture. She hammers home the truth that having women in the C-suites and at boardroom tables increases profits. That is a fact.
“Suits and Skirts: Game On!” is different than other books on this subject because it is a successful woman CEO speaking directly to the men blocking women’s corporate advancement. This no-holds-barred, well-researched discussion will ruffle many feathers.
During the virtual meeting, Teresa will discuss:
- Why men fear women in leadership roles (needlessly)
- How men block women from these leadership positions
- What businesses need to do right now to create equity, parity and equality in the workplace
- Why these changes will put more money in everyone’s pockets

The Tennessee Sister Society invites all credit union professionals, men and women, to attend the one-hour virtual meeting. After the moderated session, there will be time for attendee questions.
