“It’s not all roses” – Head of One of the Largest Woman Owned Businesses in the State to Share Decades of Insight as Keynote at Inaugural Event for Women Entrepreneurs in Wisconsin

Madison, WI – It’s grown to be a nationwide company providing audio, video, lighting and musical instruments,  but it hasn’t been easy getting Madison-based Full Compass to that point. Owner and Chairman of the Board Susan Lipp will share her story — from having nothing, to building a business supporting employees and the economy in a male dominated industry; almost losing it all, to re-creating Full Compass Systems, Ltd. into what is now the second largest woman owned business in Wisconsin — when she takes the stage at Women’s Entrepreneurship Day Wisconsin (WEDWisconsin). Lipp will be the main keynote speaker during the conference luncheon on Tuesday, November 14, 2017 at Monona Terrace.

Her luncheon keynote is titled “It’s not all roses – how perseverance, fortitude, resourcefulness and creativity will take you far.”

“Susan Lipp’s message will resonate,” WEDWisconsin Board Chair and Creative Company Owner Laura Gallagher says. “Her honesty in saying it’s not all roses, but having the entrepreneurial mindset to forge ahead and persevere will pay off, is a message we need to hear. The commitment Susan has made with her partner and husband, Jonathan to this industry, their employees, their community and the arts is unmatched. It is an honor to have her be our lunch keynote in our inaugural year because she personifies so much of who we all aspire to be.”

WEDWisconsin is a first-of-its-kind event focused on celebrating, empowering, and supporting women entrepreneurs in all types of businesses, at all stages, and all ages.

“When women are empowered in business, they have self-confidence and dignity, and are more capable of standing up for one another’s basic human rights,” Women’s Entrepreneurship Day founder Wendy Diamond says. “These types of returns are life-changing for entire communities. The more people understand the impact of empowering women in business, the more they will get involved and encourage others to do so, too.”

The WEDWisconsin Conference is part of a week-long celebration of entrepreneurship in Wisconsin, and culminates in the global recognition of Women’s Entrepreneurship Day on November 19th.

NGL employees donate 627 pairs of socks for homeless veterans

When National Guardian Life Insurance Company (NGL) employees learned that the American Red Cross needed socks for homeless veterans they jumped into action to fulfill the request. After only four days, NGL employees donated a total of 627 pairs of new socks for the American Red Cross to distribute at Homeless Veterans Stand Down, an event that will provide homeless veterans an opportunity to connect with resources in the community to hopefully begin a transition from homelessness.

The American Red Cross was hoping to receive 200 pairs of socks but NGL employees were incredibly generous and exceeded their expectations. “The sock drive for homeless veterans really hit home for me. My son is currently serving in the military so I donated because I would hope that if my son needed basic clothing items someone would help him,” shared Becky Anderson NGL Marketing.

“The outpouring of support from employees was overwhelming. We had a short time to collect socks but NGL employees made it happen. It was inspiring to see all of the socks and know that they are going to homeless veterans in our community,” said Elizabeth Kirchstein NGL Corporate Giving Administrator.
