Northwest Women'S Business Network Co-Chair
CurrentAs co-chair for the Northwest chapter of JLL's Women's Business Network, it is my job to carry on the goal of the Employee Resource Group to "empower a culture of gender partnership to attract, develop, and retain the best women in the marketplace" along with my co-chair and committee members. It is our responsibility to connect our women in the NW from the Bay Area to Portland & Seattle (over 500 members strong across the region) in providing events & activities that help our women enrich their business & personal lives. With charity events like "Dress for Success" and "Girls on the Run" as well as partnering with local organizations like the Boys & Girls Club and Oasis SF, we are giving back to the community in an effort to create a better future for women and girls. We also join forces with our female clients and put on one event a year that they are able attend to enhance their skills/career advancement/leadership/networking, etc. A big part of JLL's Diversity & Inclusion programs include our other ERGs as well. Our chapter is very active in engaging with all of our ERGs in order to help remove barriers and create advantages for all.
