"I attended two Leaders Lounge programs this year and have found the quality of exchanges, both with the speakers and panels, as well as guests, to be extremely rich and relevant...directly applicable to the challenges and opportunities Sanofi and its HR Function experience" 

"Leader’s Lounge delivers on its namesake – it is a relaxed exchange of ideas among thought leaders and friends. The format is member-driven content, the energy is contagious, and it is impossible to be a passive or anonymous observer. It is the perfect gathering to feel connected with colleagues beyond the boundaries of our current companies. And, we get to go back to our day jobs with a broadened perspective and network. "

 “I had the privilege to attend two Leaders Lounge programs in the past year. I choose to go to the Leaders Lounge programs because the format is novel, the quality of guests and presenters, and the relaxed and interactive nature of the sessions.  I think Shomik and the team put a lot of thought into the agenda and line up the best presenters. I look forward to many more” 

“Leaders Lounge is an intimate, professionally produced program where you get to see, hear and meet industry experts that share their best practices. If you are looking for place to network and hear from people that have been there and done it – this is it. No fluff, no filler – just a day full of information you can immediately apply.”

"Leaders Lounge is a great set of programs to bring senior hr executives together in a “safe environment” to learn from each other. The caliber of executives on the panel discussions add depth and a breadth of very diverse businesses trying to solve the same types of challenges." 

 "The NY Leaders Lounge events have provided us with the opportunity to collaborate with HR leaders in a relaxed yet professional environment. The planning and caliber of speakers is top-notch and we have been happy to be a partner for a number of years. "
