Goal
The Vancouver Board of Trade’s Women’s Leadership Circle® (WLC) is designed to deliver programs, speakers, topics and other events that will enable The Board of Trade be more engaged with women in the community and to help women feel more engaged with The Board.
Make a difference
WLC offers unique opportunities for women to be involved in the social and political issues The Board tackles, as well as outstanding relationship-building and networking activities.
Meet the leaders
"The Women’s Leadership Circle is designed to help identify programs, speakers, topics and other events that will help The Vancouver Board of Trade be more engaged with women in the community,” says Sue Paish, CEO of Pharmasave and chair of the WLC Advisory Council.
"When you sit with other like-minded people – and we can use the Women’s Leadership Circle® as a perfect metaphor – you start to realize that you have similar concepts and desires, and that there is noting more empowering than making a difference."
