Extraordinary Women's Exchange

The Extraordinary Women's Exchange creates a unique experience for women to build community, network, connect and engage with other smart, motivated women in the Greater Richmond region by fostering dialogue and inspiring personal and professional growth.

Extraordinary Women's Exchange featuring Heidi Androl

Please join us as we kick off the Metropolitan Business League’s Women Who Mean Business Summit with a breakfast event featuring Heidi Androl, Sportscaster and Producer for the Los Angeles Kings and the NHL, and author of “The Men’s Room.” Heidi will discuss her professional experiences finding success in traditionally male-dominated industries.

Heidi is the female face of the Los Angeles Kings and the NHL, Heidi Androl has helped to build their online network and increase viewership as a producer and on-air host. She has interviewed the biggest names and covered the Winter Olympics, the Grammys, the American Music Awards, the NHL All Star Games, the Winter Classic, and the NHL Awards.

Prior to joining the Kings, Heidi worked in the Aerospace Industry. Her rapid rise in the industry caught the eye of Donald Trump as she was selected to participate on the Apprentice LA appearing in 13 out of 14 episodes.

Her debut book, In the Men’s Room, captures her experiences as a female in two male-dominated industries. Heidi will discuss her journey and the roadblocks she avoided on her journey to the top.

Please join us for yet another unique and empowering experience in this quarterly women's series, and get to know other smart, motivated, sassy women in the process. The event is open to the public; ticket price includes program, continental breakfast and an opportunity to meet Heidi and other extraordinary women before and after the presentation.

Tickets for the entire day of the Women Who Mean Business Summit may be purchased separately. Learn more here.
