At this inaugural Chicago awards event on March 7, 2013 from 11:00 am to 1:30 pm, Womenetics will recognize and celebrate women who have stirred the status quo and advanced their organizations, celebrating their excellence in leadership as a fresh standard for business and the community.

For today’s successful women, it’s not just “business as usual” anymore. As the number of women in the U.S. workforce continues to increase, women who actively forge new paths while inspiring others are at the forefront of this paradigm shift. This woman leverages her position of influence to challenge those around her to burst through barriers and find creative ways of dealing with obstacles. She brings together key stakeholders, inspiring passion, conviction and confidence in others. This self-motivated trailblazer sees through the clutter and embraces a constantly evolving terrain, paving the way for others. She’s known for her abilities to lead, innovate, collaborate and advance. She is shifting the organization, and with it, business as we know it. 

Womenetics will recognize nine outstanding women in the Chicago area. These women are nominated by corporate and community leaders for not only their leadership but what they do to contribute to community at-large.
