Profiles in Diversity Journal Announces its 2018 Women Worth Watching Awards

Executives Leading the Way to Excellence in the Workplace,
Marketplace and the World

Cleveland, OH - June 7, 2018

Profiles in Diversity Journal
today proudly announces the winners of the 17th Annual Women Worth Watching® Awards. In celebrating the 17th year anniversary, there have been 132 nominations selected as 2018 winners. Approximately 10% of this year’s winners are from beyond our boarders: Canada, Germany, India, UK. These leaders join past winners, (see www.womenworthwatching.com) some of whom have gone on to become CEOs of Fortune 500 companies. While countless others have moved forward to lead new business units, drive new markets, launch new ventures, and help develop the next generation of women leaders.

Their profiles in the upcoming Women Worth Watching edition will recognize and publicly celebrate their commitment and achievements. As the companies select the nominees for this award, it represents C-suite support of women in leadership, so we also enhance the visibility and reputations of the companies and organizations that empower, support, and employ these incredible women. The 2018 Women Worth Watching magazine edition will be available to the public in August.
