Reflections on Leadership and SuccessJennifer Lawton, executive and serial entrepreneur, will reflect on the factors that have led to her career success. From founding and running top tech companies to owning and managing an independent bookstore chain, Lawton has a wide base of experience from which to share advice and observations. In her most recent role, Lawton was at the vanguard of innovation and disruptive technology, as three-dimensional desktop printing company MakerBot rose to the fore of consumer 3-D printing. She leveraged her own life experience as a successful entrepreneur to help grow the company, market it, and establish retail outlets, making 3-D printing a reality for the consumer. As with any success story, there were challenges to be overcome, and it is from this journey that Lawton will share the lessons she learned along the way.
