Ms. Coberly, along with panelists from Shell Oil Company, Texas Children’s Hospital, KPMG and Bauer College, addressed issues related to benefits, leave and flexibility in organizations, shared their own experiences, and talked about initiatives they are championing to create a friendly environment for working families.
