PINK Kicks off 5th Annual Fall Empowerment Series 2009 -- Featuring America's
Most Influential Women in Business

ATLANTA, Oct. 8 /PRNewswire/ -- What difference would it make in a woman's
career if she could spend a couple of hours in a room with some of the most
successful women in business? Find out this fall, when PINK - the national
women's business media group - brings world class leadership events to cities
across the country for the fifth year in a row.

With MetLife as the Presenting Sponsor, the half-day conference and luncheon
features break-out sessions on finance, leadership, marketing and balance.
Speakers include such leading business minds as Executive Vice President,
Global Marketing and Corporate Affairs for Citi, Lisa Caputo; American Heart
Association CEO, Nancy Brown; American Express OPEN President, Susan Sobbott;
Pfizer Chief Diversity Officer, Karen Boyin-Towns; New York Times Staff Writer
and best-selling author, Lisa Belkin -- and more!

"MetLife is proud to sponsor this year's Fall Empowerment Series. We know that
women control more than 80% of household spending, yet more than half of them
do not consult anyone regarding their finances. This series provides a great
opportunity for women to not only learn from and network with top business
leaders, but also to get advice to secure their financial future," says
Michael J. Vietri, executive vice president, Individual Distribution.

Other sponsors include Walmart, Cisco, LexisNexis, Southern Company, Georgia
Pacific and Corset Styling.

The series kicks off at 8:30 a.m. on October 13th in Chicago with a Keynote
welcome from women's marketing guru and author Marti Barletta (see
pinkmagazine.com for details.)

PINK CEO, Cynthia Good says, "When America's most influential women in
business share their wisdom and success secrets at these PINK events, it's
often a life-changing experience for the women attending, plus they develop
great connections!"
