New Members Fuel TEMPO Milwaukee's Emerging Women Leaders Initiative
Program adds 69 mid-career professionals from broad array of businesses and industries
MILWAUKEE — (November 28, 2018) — TEMPO Milwaukee is pleased to announce continued growth in its Emerging Women Leaders (EWL) initiative with the recent addition of 69 new members. EWL, which was launched in 2015 with 40 members, provides networking and professional development for high-achieving, mid-career women. Membership now totals 160+ women leaders representing 115 public and private sector organizations from throughout southeastern Wisconsin.
“We are extremely proud of how EWL has grown and succeeded over the past three years, from a mere idea about reaching out to mid-career women leaders to a thriving entity now approaching 200 members,” said Marilyn Krause, principal at Krause Communications and EWL chair. “EWL is where Milwaukee’s next generation of leaders come together to develop professionally and personally.”
Candidates are admitted to the EWL program via nomination, based on this participant profile. Among the program’s offerings are professional development, community involvement, and social and networking events. EWL members can also receive individual mentoring by TEMPO Milwaukee members and from their peers in a small group setting.
In a recent member survey, 78% of respondents indicated being an EWL member makes them feel “determined, empowered, and motivated.”
“Women aspire to join EWL for the high-caliber programming, to make meaningful connections with peers from diverse backgrounds, and to gain leadership skills as they transition to more senior-level positions,” said Tami Garrison, community affairs at MillerCoors and TEMPO Milwaukee’s board chair. “EWL offerings continue to develop, empowering members to bring their best selves to work and in service to the community.”
