Women Empowerment Council Members
Membership Benefits
Being a WEC Member is an opportunity to move the needle and work in collaboration with other passionate and dedicated leaders and organizations. This engaged network supports member companies to accomplish internal Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) goals while advancing gender equality on an organizational and systemic level. Join the WEC to gain access to the network, learn and share best practices, influence policy, and connect with local and global thought leaders.
Asking the question “Why aren’t we moving the needle?” we realized business leaders and decision-makers need to drive the change. In 2019, the Women Empowerment Council was born.
