The Supper Club, hosted by The Collective by CNY Women’s Network, invites women leaders, founders, and operators to an evening of intentional connection and high-level conversation.
Our Spring 2026 Supper Club, taking place at The Adelphi Hotel in Saratoga Springs, will center on the theme:
“Execution Mode: The Systems Behind the Success”
What This Conversation Is About
Not motivation.
Not surface-level storytelling.
Instead, we’re going deeper:
What does your week actually look like?
What systems are running your business or career?
How do you stay visible while executing at a high level?
What are you tracking—and what actually matters?
What are you delegating?
What are your non-negotiables?
This is a room for women who are not just building—but operating.
