DESCRIPTION:Featured Guest Speaker—\nTanya Hill\nMarket President\, Central Florida \nTopic:\nLeading Through Transformation – Building Boundaries that Work\nLeadership rarely waits for the perfect moment. New opportunities often arrive alongside organizational change\, evolving industries\, growing responsibilities\, and full lives outside of work. At the November FEW Luncheon\, Tanya Hill\, Market President for Central Florida at Florida Blue\, will share her perspective on stepping into an elevated leadership role while navigating transformation both professionally and personally. \nTanya will introduce FEW members to Florida Blue’s role and impact across Central Florida and share the career journey that led her to her current position. From there\, she will offer a candid look at the realities of learning and leading simultaneously—building confidence in a new role\, staying grounded in personal values\, and leading authentically during periods of organizational and industry change. \nThrough the lens of her experiences as a senior executive\, mother\, and community leader\, Tanya will explore the importance of personal capacity management and intentional boundaries. Rather than striving for perfect balance\, she will share how thoughtful choices\, strategic priorities\, and the ability to say “no” can help leaders protect what matters most while continuing to deliver meaningful impact. \nHow This Will Benefit Our Members\nThis engaging and relatable conversation will encourage FEW members to consider how they navigate their own leadership transitions\, competing priorities\, and evolving identities—and how building boundaries that truly work can create greater capacity to lead through transformation.\n\n\nMeet Our Speaker: Minette Marcial\n \nTanya Hill is Florida Blue’s Market President for Central Florida.
