Empowering Women is designed to showcase tangible and innovative efforts by for profit companies to advance women in the workplace and community.
The editorial team used a variety of criteria to evaluate companies and to showcase those that have earned recognition.
Empowering Women honors companies that demonstrate a commitment to some or all of the following:
Have a track record of recruiting, hiring and promoting women in their organization.
Offer a mentoring program for women.
Work toward systemic change in society to combat inequality.
Place women on their board or C-Suite.
Contribute to advancing the cause of women through outside philanthropic or community endeavors.
Provide scholarship assistance to women.
CityBusiness hopes that by recognizing the achievements of those organizations that have empowered women, it will provide guidance and inspiration to others hoping to emulate those successes.
