How we startedWomen in Business was founded in the Fall of 2015 by two women who were passionate about business and empowerment. Knowing the struggles first hand of being a woman in the work place, they were determined to change the misconceptions and limitations by eliminating the inequalities. Together they set out to be a part of an organization bigger than themselves that still allowed them to make a mark.
Thus, Women in Business was formed on the principles of success through fellowship, determination, and wisdom. With the ever changing business world, Women in Business strives to empower its members through workshops, speakers, and an understanding of the realities of gender differences in the workplace. By providing its members with the knowledge and confidence to relentlessly chase their ambitions, nothing will stop us from success. |
