Fortune magazine editor-at-large Patricia Sellers will deliver a lecture on "Power and Leadership" on Wednesday, March 22, as a guest of the Poynter Fellowship in Journalism.
Her talk will take place at 4 p.m. in Rm. 127 of the Law School, 127 Wall St. The event is free and open to the public.
Sellers is best known for launching Fortune's "The Most Powerful Women in Business" issue in 1988. She continues to oversee and write for this special issue. She also co-chairs the annual Fortune "Most Powerful Women Summit," the preeminent gathering of women leaders in business, philanthropy, academia and the arts.
Sellers has written some of Fortune's best-read cover stories, including profiles of Martha Stewart, Meg Whitman, Ted Turner and Oprah Winfrey. She has also profiled many Fortune 500 chief executive officers such as Goldman Sachs' Hank Paulson, Morgan Stanley's John Mack and Home Depot's Bob Nardelli.
In addition, she has broken ground with in-depth pieces on career management issues such as ego, charisma and failure.
Sellers began her career at Fortune in 1984 following the top consumer brand companies and continues to write about Coca-Cola, PepsiCo and Procter & Gamble.
