Advocating for Yourself During Change
12:30-1:30 PM ET/9:30-10:30 AM PT – Lunch Keynote Session (1 CPE Credit):
With a presidential election looming on the horizon, stress and anxiety about an Administration change is likely to creep in. How will your work change? What will priorities be? This keynote session will focus on not only how to get through periods of change, but how to come out on the other side a stronger employee.

Emily Oehler, Career Coach and Director, Guidehouse
I believe it all comes down to sharing a compelling story that teaches, inspires, and ultimately connects people to something bigger than themselves.
Professionally, I spent 25+ years helping leaders and organizations build bold ideas and communicate better to drive change through my time with:
- Grant Thornton leading the 80-person Business Change Enablement public sector practice,
- Booz Allen Hamilton and Zeiders Enterprises as an award-winning federal communication and change management consultant,
- Society of Interventional Radiology as its membership and media relations communicator, and
- Washington Independent Production as an award-winning TV news producer.
Personally, I’ll always be a red-headed preacher’s kid grounded in a legacy of strong, faith-fill, community-centered Southern women.
