Lisa Sun, founder and CEO of GRAVITAS, is set to speak at the in-person 2022 NACDS Annual Meeting in Palm Beach, FL, where she will share with attendees empowering and experience-driven insights on how to harness their “superpower,” and use “gravitas” to advance both personally and professionally. Sun will present during the NACDS Luncheon on Monday, April 25.
“We are delighted to welcome GRAVITAS CEO and Founder, Lisa Sun, to the 2022 NACDS Annual Meeting,” said NACDS President and CEO Steven C. Anderson. “Lisa Sun’s passion for style, diversity and inclusivity – along with her keen ability to encourage and empower others – make her a unique and outstanding business leader. I look forward to the enthusiasm and energy she will undoubtedly bring to this year’s highly anticipated event. NACDS celebrates the return to in-person meetings – and the unrivaled opportunities NACDS conferences and events provide members to connect and collaborate, in a safe and effective manner.”
In 2012, Sun founded GRAVITAS as a “confidence company” that offers innovative apparel and styling solutions designed to makeover women from the inside-out. Two months after launch, her first collection was featured in O, The Oprah magazine, PEOPLE and The TODAY Show – all in the same month. Since then, Sun has appeared on CNN, and in Forbes, Fast Company, New York magazine, Elle, Marie Claire, InStyle and more to talk about GRAVITAS.
Praised for her passion and warmth, Sun integrates anecdotes from her own journey and data and experience-driven insights from her 11 years at McKinsey & Company into her presentations, and has provided lectures for groups including JPMorgan Chase, Mortgage Bankers Association Summit for Women in Real Estate Finance, HSN, Dress for Success Global Success Summit and The Nantucket Project.
While at McKinsey & Company, Sun advised leading luxury, fashion and beauty brands and retailers in the U.S., Asia, Europe and Latin America on strategic and operational issues. Of note, Sun was considered one of the firm’s top experts in the luxury and fashion space.
