CHICAGO SCHOLARS HOSTS SERIES TO EMPOWER FUTURE WOMEN BUSINESS LEADERS
Chicago Women Lift and Lead was created in 2021. Elizabeth Browne, Head of Entrepreneur & Family Office Partnerships at RedBird, had the idea for the series. She wanted to figure out how to ensure greater access and opportunity for women in business, especially women of color. With the series, 40 senior women leaders from different sectors and industries in Chicago are paired with a cohort of young women, who are recent graduates entering the workforce or set to enter the workforce. The young women have the opportunity for exposure to different career paths and mentorship from the 40 senior women leaders.
