Engagement Committee

The overall purpose of the Engagement Committee is to introduce new members to the extraordinary opportunities associated with belonging to a global network of female leaders. Committee members will provide welcome, onboarding, orientation and support for new members, and identify diverse membership needs, including membership engagement, benefits and services.
