Wow, caught myself typing LUNCH up there in the headline — hard to think of it as dinner.  The honoree was Carolyn Kepcher, who became famous as Donald Trump’s assistant on “The Apprentice”.  Now, however, she is writing books and providing career advice in a New York Daily News column, and started a web site to help professional women, WorkHerWay.com.

Her presentation was a very interesting review of how she got to where she is.  One of her most interesting claims is that she didn’t believe in work/life balance; she used to believe that if you weren’t in the office, you weren’t working.  But the Blackberry has changed all that.

The distinguished districts were the guests of honor for this, they were announced, and pictures of the DGs and the trio names played on the video screens throughout dinner.
