Top Women CEOs

Women in Business is ex­cited each year to honor the Top Women CEOs and Leaders who are central Pennsylvania’s most note­worthy leaders in the busi­ness world. These women represent the thousands who are forging their own path in the business world, either by rising to the top in established organizations or starting their own success­ful enterprise. The impact of these women is felt not only in their dedication to their careers, but in their devotion to their communities. From fields like healthcare and ed­ucation, to traditionally male industries like construction and manufacturing, provid­ing leadership and innovation for central Pennsylvania as it moves towards a pros­perous future.

The diverse and impressive accomplish­ments of these women are fascinating. They are not only improving the bottom line of their companies, they are making central Pennsylvania a better place to live and providing an example to a rising gen­eration. They are, in our own community, the visible embodiment of the rallying cry, “If you can see her, you can be her,” ena­bling young women to aspire and realize their ambitions.

In October, Women in Business will shift its focus to our premier recognition pro­gram, “Women Making a Difference.” We are already soliciting nominations for this prestigious program. If you are interested in nominating a woman who is making a difference in your community, please see the ad on Page 2 for making your nomina­tion online. We want to hear from you!
