TOPEKA (KSNT) - The Greater Topeka Partnership held its annual Women's Forum Thursday morning at Hotel Topeka at City Center.
"We are talking about women in leadership. I feel the biggest message is, bringing about awareness to the quality and resilience that comes with being a leader, especially being a woman leader. The message today is about talking about the value we bring to leadership and the style we bring to leadership."

The forum centered on women in the workforce and the progress women have made in leadership roles in business.
