      <title>PD October Program | Final Five Voting: An Anti-Gridlock Strategy (10/15/2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Speaker:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Katherine Gehl&lt;/strong&gt; | Business leader, entrepreneur, author of&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;font face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;The Politics Industry&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 34px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Co-Sponsors:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Professional Dimensions and The Women's Fund&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 34px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;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’.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 34px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;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.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 34px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;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.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 34px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Event Details&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
