To support the recruitment, development, retention and promotion of female attorneys at Lemery Greisler LLC, the Women’s Roundtable was created in 2019. Roundtable members meet on a regular basis to discuss issues affecting female attorneys including:

• Leadership Development

• Professional Marketing

• Networking

• Firm dynamics

• Wellness

New initiatives and recommendations are presented to Lemery Greisler’s executive management for implementation. The Roundtable members are encouraged to get to know one another and work together.

On June 27, 2022, the Lemery Greisler LLC Women’s Roundtable hosted a Women’s Retreat on beautiful Lake George at the Wiawaka Center for Women. This wellness event enabled Lemery Greisler’s women attorneys, clients and other professionals to relax and network with a day filled with empowering activities. The event included lakefront yoga with Certified Baptiste Instructor Sheryl Campbell, a presentation on nutrition for women’s health and well-being by nutritionist Kathie Swift, RDN, LDN and EBQ, and a fun paint n’ sip canvas painting with Kendra Farstad and helpers. Attendees also enjoyed light fare and a lunch prepared by the on-site Wiawaka chef. It was a wonderful day.

The Women’s Roundtable continued the tradition by hosting its second Women’s Retreat on June 26, 2023, again at the Wiawaka Center for Women. The 2023 activities included Qigong self-massage by Dana Balassi, Mocktail mixology 101 with Julie Nellis from Jazmyn Rose, and a presentation on herbs for stress relief by Heather Houskeeper (aka the Botanical Hiker). Attendees concluded the day by making their own salve and planting herbs to grow. The Women’s Roundtable looks forward to hosting more events in the future.

The Women’s Roundtable is a supporter of the American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women Day and International Women’s Day.
