Women in Business

Chair: Cheryl Ellis, Ellis Business Enterprises LLC

Mission: Women organized to mentor, educate and network. A dynamic network dedicated to further the advancement of women and empower them in their professional and personal lives.

“Trust yourself. Create the kind of self that you will be happy to live with all your life. Make the most of yourself by fanning the tiny, inner sparks of possibility into flames of achievement.”
Golda Meir

The Women in Business Committee offers professional women a unique opportunity to grow – to fan their sparks of possibility into flames of success – within an atmosphere created specifically for them. Meet like-minded women with similar goals and issues who are motivated to achieve more success in their businesses and careers. Develop skills you might not practice in your workplace but will find both rewarding and useful, such as networking and event planning. Become exposed to professional women from all sectors and sizes of businesses who face similar issues and challenges as you do and discover how they address these and excel.
