Trailblazing Justice: A Conversation with Christine Durham on Women, Leadership, and the Law

Join us for our fifth webinar in the 2026 Women in Leadership Executive Speaker Series featuring Dr. Susan R. Madsen in conversation with Justice Christine Durham, former Chief Justice of the Utah Supreme Court. Justice Durham has long been recognized as a trailblazer in the legal profession and a powerful advocate for women’s leadership and equality. In this engaging dialogue, she will reflect on her groundbreaking career, the challenges and opportunities she encountered as the first woman appointed to Utah’s highest court, and the lessons she has drawn about resilience, vision, and systemic change. Dr. Madsen, founder and director of the Utah Women & Leadership Project, will guide the discussion to highlight Durham’s insights on advancing women in leadership across sectors, the evolving role of law in shaping equity, and the importance of mentoring the next generation. This webinar offers inspiration and practical wisdom for leaders committed to creating more inclusive organizations and communities.
