Why Women Leaders
Women are special. There are many characteristics that we are expected to uphold day in and day out; elegance and grace, compassion, courage and intelligence. We are expected to be humble yet confident, kind and honest. Society places a heavy weight on our shoulders and we need to reboot and recharge to keep ourselves balanced. Women face big obstacles and by coming together, we can plug in and learn from one another. We can help celebrate our successes and overcome our challenges.
Our Start
It started with an idea and a desire to come together with other powerful women to build each other up, support one another, strengthen and grow together while giving back to this amazing community. A collaborative effort was born that would bring together our area’s leading business women so they could make a difference in the lives of others.
What We Do
We meet twice a month as a group to learn, inspire, and be educated about matters that impact us both personally and professionally. Our speakers are focused on subjects that range from aging parents to building an award winning team to leadership. Our quarterly events allow us to give back to those nonprofits that are focused on issues that affect women.
By coming together with colleagues, friends, and mentors, we can bring about awareness and have influence in the lives of others. Each of us have unique gifts and talents. The members of Women Leaders in Business have an opportunity to pursue a great purpose.
The possibilities are endless and the journey begins with us....
