It's time for more inspiring women from the Milwaukee business community to join Emerging Women Leaders! We're specifically looking for dynamic mid-career professional women with a combination of professional/leadership experience and community involvement, and who share the values of EWL. EWL nominations are currently accepted two times per year. The Fall nomination period for EWL is now closed. Be on the look out for the next nomination period this upcoming Spring 2023. If you submitted a nomination for the Fall review, please keep an eye out in your inbox for next steps on confirmation of your nomination. "I just joined TEMPO Milwaukee's Emerging Women Leaders group a few months ago and it's already enriched both my professional and personal life - even though we're still meeting virtually! I have never felt so welcomed when joining a new organization and can already see how this group will become a major influence on my future." EWL CANDIDATES MUST MEET THE FOLLOWING CRITERIA:
“It truly is a group of my peers - not based on age or location, but the issues, concerns and plans I have at this point in my career. Because of that it's more than just a network - it's a sounding board, mentors and friends all rolled into one group. The networking piece is really just an added bonus.”
In summary, the typical Emerging Women Leaders member is recognized within her company as a leader and high performer. She can identify a minimum of one volunteer commitment in which she’s actively involved. Emerging Women Leaders join for professional development, mentoring, community involvement and networking opportunities with their peer group, as well as with TEMPO members at select events. In addition, our Emerging Women Leaders are the future generation of leaders in Milwaukee and aspire to be TEMPO members - joining the ranks of C-suite, executives, business owners and nonprofit leaders. TEMPO MEMBERSHIP CRITERIA IS:
“The caliber of women is incredible. Each of these women are in similar career places; we understand the challenges each other are facing and can support all aspects of what life is throwing at us. These peer relationships are the ones that we will be leaning on when we are leading organizations in the upcoming years. Having this network is invaluable for today and for the many years ahead.”
THEN, a member of EWL's nomination committee will contact your nominee and schedule a brief phone call to discuss her qualifications further. The goal of this conversation is to discuss why she's interested in joining EWL, how she's demonstrated leadership at her organization/in the community, and what she'd like to contribute to our organization. "EWL has opened doors to my professional and personal network that would likely have never opened without them. Additionally, the mentorship available through this program has fundamentally changed both my life and my business. I will be forever indebted to EWL for allowing me these opportunities."
