Women of Influence Awards, PSBJ, Nov. 18

Women of Influence Awards, PSBJ

When: Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 5:30pm-9:30pm

Where: Puget Sound Business Journal, 801 Second Ave. Suite 210, Seattle

What: Now in its eleventh year, the Puget Sound Business Journal’s Women of Influence award program shines the spotlight on local businesswomen, community leaders and philanthropists who are a force in the region.

Throughout history, women have made a difference in the workplace… but paving the way to the top and into leadership positions, has taken more than hard work. The pioneers had to shatter glass ceilings, knock down doors, create their own paths and help others along the way. More than ever, women are making a huge impact on the Puget Sound region’s economy.

The Business Journal has consistently recognized the contributions of women within the business community, and once a year publishes a special report and hosts an event celebrating Women of Influence.

The Puget Sound Business Journal’s Women of Influence Awards honors women within the business community who: have the authority and power to move the needle in their business; are respected for accomplishments within their industries; give back to the community; and are sought out as respected advisors and mentors within their field of influence.
