“After 10 years of tracking the numbers, we have seen impressive growth and significant advancement for gender parity and diversity in the leadership ranks of corporate America,” said Women’s Forum member Janice Reals Ellig, CEO of the recruiting firm Ellig Group and Breakfast of Corporate Champions Chair and Founder in an article featured on WWD. “This issue has even greater relevance in 2021, and we’re tremendously proud to celebrate an impressive collection of game-changing Corporate Champions who are determined to lead the way.”
On Wednesday, November 10, 2021, the Women’s Forum of New York will once again honor CEOs and companies that exceed the national average of board seats held by women and are leading the way to parity by 2025.
