Women in Leadership Group at The Fort RestaurantWomen In Leadership

The Chamber's Women In Leadership Group brings together women of different backgrounds: business leaders, activists, educators, and many others. We feature influential and inspirational businesswomen as speakers atmany of our venuesto share their career path, the Pamela Schenck speaking to WIL groupchallenges they have overcome and how they deal with life balance issues.
We believe that leadership is not a separate event but something that we demonstrate in all aspects of our daily lives.  Therefore, we focus on celebrating the success of our own women leaders who come together at our programs to connect, share their stories and serve as an inspiration to one another. 

The Future belongs to
Those who believe in
The beauty of their dreams.

-Eleanor Roosevelt
