Exeter, NH – January 24^th, 2012 NH Commonwealth Group hosted an incredible Table Talk Event yesterday where high powered women from across the state gathered to discuss some of the hottest issues that are facing women in New Hampshire and in the nation.

Dianne Durkin, president and founder of Loyalty Factor, is the facilitator for the monthly New Hampshire Chapter of the Commonwealth Institute’s Women CEO’s Forum. The Commonwealth Institute is an advisory group that helps business leaders with such issues as securing venture capital and other forms of financing, branding, and human resource issues.

Everyone faces challenges and need a good business plan and strategy. This forum provides the collaborative atmosphere for women leaders to brainstorm solutions for issues they are facing in their organizations and develop effective strategies for the future.

The Commonwealth Institute began a decade ago and has 12 chapters in the Boston area, two in Florida and one in New Hampshire. The plan for the New Hampshire forum is to attract women from around the state from various industries.

The NH CEO Forum consists of a group of 10 women CEOs from various industries including healthcare, manufacturing, insurance, and social media services. It provides members the opportunity to work through major business issues. As facilitator, Dianne asks the tough questions, plays devil’s advocate, and helps the women think though their processes, procedures and self imposed restrictions for success. It is accomplished in a small group and non-competitive setting.
