PD October Program | Final Five Voting: An Anti-Gridlock Strategy (10/15/2026)

Thu, 15 Oct 2026 22:30:00 GMT

Speaker: Katherine Gehl | Business leader, entrepreneur, author of The Politics Industry

Co-Sponsors: Professional Dimensions and The Women's Fund

In 2015, successful businesswoman Katherine Gehl, Chairwoman of the Board and CEO of The Gehl Company in West Bend, sold her company to focus on a new business, which she has termed ‘The Politics Industry’.

Using business parameters, Katherine, along with Harvard business professor and renowned business strategist Michael Porter, analyzed the American political process to explain why it is gridlocked.

She proposes that our democracy can be saved through innovation. This is not a political conversation; it is a process of conversation based upon time-tested business principles. It is a topic of our time.
