    Event Description:

    Join us as we celebrate Woman's Equity Month with Judge Monica Hawkins. During this discussion we will discuss pay inequity, glass ceilings, challenges women face with sexism, discrimination, and family balance. Additionally, we will hear about Judge Hawkins' story on how she overcame some of these challenges and obstacles during her professional career.


    Judge Monica Hawkins was elected Judge of the Franklin County Court of Common Pleas, Division of Domestic Relations, and Juvenile Branch in 2018, bringing over 23 years of public service experience working with families in our community.

    On January 1, 2024, Judge Monica Hawkins assumed the role of Administrative Judge over the Franklin County Court of Common Pleas, Domestic Relations and Juvenile Branch. Since taking the bench, Judge Hawkins has presided over more than 16,000 cases involving juvenile delinquency, abuse, neglect and dependency, permanent court custody matters, divorces and dissolutions, custody, visitation, and child support cases.

    Judge Hawkins graduated from The Ohio State University where she received a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Criminal Justice. She subsequently attended The University of Dayton and received a Master of Science Degree in Education. Fulfilling a life-long dream, Judge Hawkins graduated from Capital University Law School and received a Doctor of Jurisprudence in 2000 and was licensed to practice law in Ohio the same year.

    Dedicated to family law and children’s welfare, Judge Hawkins was a Child Welfare Caseworker with Franklin County Children Services working directly with the diverse population of Franklin County. She continues that dedication from the bench assisting families, children’s issues that plague our community including drug addiction, domestic violence, abuse, neglect and dependency, juvenile issues and providing a myriad of services and resources to families in crisis.

    Judge Monica Hawkins is the proud mother of Dionte’ J. Johnson, former Ohio State University football captain, entrepreneur, and philanthropist. He and his wife, Jessica, are the parents of Judge Hawkins’ beautiful grandchildren.

    KEYNOTE SPEAKER

    We are excited to announce that this year’s conference features  
    Rick Lozano!

    About Rick's keynote:

    There is no denying that the world of work has changed. And amidst global challenges such as attrition, burnout, and disengagement, attracting and retaining key talent is more important than ever. Your role in Talent Development plays a huge part in that piece of the employee life cycle, but you are employees as well! How do we keep you engaged, motivated, and moving forward so that you can provide essential solutions that keep others engaged as well?

    Rick Lozano has some answers, and he is going to help you Find Your Jam! That place where we feel in the groove, connected, creatively innovating while doing the work that matters.

    Based on the models presented in his book, Find Your Jam, Rick Lozano will introduce his signature RIFF™ framework as a tool for helping create that momentum. He’ll introduce simple strategies that will help your audience:

    • Identify and overcome the obstacles that are impeding benefits utilization.
    • Utilize existing talents and resources to create new possibilities and opportunities.
    • Simplify and streamline to navigate through all the “noise”.
    • Create a sense of flow and innovation where everyone is more engaged.

    And we’ll have a ton of fun, laughing while we learn.
