Ms. Perry Piscione appears regularly as a political commentator </div> <div> on CNN and NPR programs, and has appeared as a guest on the <i>Today Show, </i></div> <div> <i>The O’Reilly Factor</i> and <i>Hardball with Chris Matthews</i>. </div> <br class="2aemw2t7dg3inqf6r"> <div> She teaches at American University as a professorial lecturer at the Women and </div> <div> Politics Institute. Prior to that, Ms. Perry Piscione was a former administration </div> <div> official under President George H.W. Bush, staff and legislative aide for U.S. </div> <div> Senator Connie Mack (R-FL) and U.S. Representative Ileana Ros-Lehtinen </div> <div> (R-FL), specializing in foreign policy and economics. She has been featured </div> <div> in leading women’s magazines such as <i>Ladies’ Home Journal</i>, and in newspapers </div> <div> such as the <i>Chicago Tribune</i>, and was awarded a 2004 Gracie Allen Award by </div> <div> American Women in Radio and Television. Ms. Perry Piscione has a passion for </div> <div> the women’s suffrage movement and an affinity for working with young women. </div> <br class="2aemw2t7dg3inqf6r"> <div> The Choose 2 Lead Women’s Foundation is a non profit organization that is a </div> <div> catalyst for changing the paradigm of the 21st century workplace, bringing together </div> <div> facts, economics, and social needs to support informed choices by women, employers </div> <div> and policymakers. </div> <br class="2aemw2t7dg3inqf6r"> <div> There are more women in the workforce than ever before: many are working mothers, </div> <div> and Generation X and Y women possess a new work ethos, wanting to have more balance </div> <div> between work, family and community, carving out a different path of their baby boomer </div> <div> mothers who had to fight for equality in the workplace. Still other women have taken </div> <div> sabbaticals to raise families, or have found a "family-friendly" employer. As baby boomers </div> <div> age and contemplate traditional retirement, there won’t be enough young people entering </div> <div> the workforce to replace them, and they won’t have comparable experience. </div> <br class="2aemw2t7dg3inqf6r"> <br class="2aemw2t7dg3inqf6r"> <br class="2aemw2t7dg3inqf6r"> <br class="2aemw2t7dg3inqf6r"> </td> </tr></table></body>
