Prior to Carta\, Ryan spent 3 years at DoorDash building its white-label delivery business. Before joining DoorDash\, he spent 7+ years working in business development and partnership roles across several early-stage companies.

SUMMARY:Showing Up as Yourself: A Real Talk on Leadership and Belonging” hosted by the Roux Institute
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a fireside chat where Claude Silver and Jana Rich will lead us through a conversation exploring how we can all “Be Ourselves at Work.”\nNo matter our role\, seniority\, or generation\, we all want the same things: to feel valued\, trusted\, respected\, and like we belong. When we stop performing and start being\, we unlock our capacity to connect\, thrive\, and do our best work. Not only is this shift liberating—it’s the antidote to burnout\, an end to the myth of “fitting in\,” and a proven path to building bold\, human-first teams.

SUMMARY:Maine Visionary Leaders
DESCRIPTION:The NACD New England Chapter\, The Roux Institute at Northeastern University and the Portland Regional Chamber of Commerce are pleased to present a special Visionaries event celebrating the far-reaching vision of Maine and New England business leaders. \nThe event will bring together CEOs from a diverse set of Maine businesses together with key leaders from State Government to discuss how businesses in the region are navigating the new world of uncertainty. From changing patterns of trade and tariffs to AI and emerging technologies. \nFor boards and their directors\, building an agile and resilient environment has never been as important as it is today. Decisions made today will have widespread impacts. Some decisions lead to consequences that cannot be predicted or clearly defined. What framework for decision-making have leading boards adopted in the current environment? What are the current issues at the top of boards’ agendas? What do boards need to understand? How can they stay current and where should they focus?
