April 2026 | Leadership on New Terms

What happens when accomplished executives stop waiting for the corporate world to change and start redefining leadership on their own terms?

Toni Ronayne, Founder & CEO of The C Society, joins journalist Caroline Fairchild for Leadership on New Terms, a conversation exploring the changing landscape of executive leadership, the challenges facing women in corporate America, and the growing movement toward fractional and portfolio careers.

Drawing on her experience leading some of the restaurant industry’s most recognized brands, Ronayne shares the journey that inspired The C Society and why traditional leadership structures are no longer serving many of the executives and organizations operating within them.

The conversation challenges the perception that fractional leadership is a temporary alternative to full-time employment. Instead, it explores how experienced executives can create greater autonomy, distribute career risk, and deliver meaningful results across multiple organizations.

At its heart is a powerful idea: The future of leadership isn’t about finding another seat at the table. It’s about changing how the table is built.
