The organization, which opened its doors to members in January 2016, focuses on building a strong community that will inspire women and help them further their careers. Among its offerings are a coaching program, an international membership directory, events, a quarterly education enewsletter, monthly webinars, and volunteer leadership opportunities.
The new board members, who represent fields ranging from media to government to the corporate and association markets, come from the U.S. and countries including Taiwan and New Zealand.
