Glassbreaker Awards
Do you know people who are exceptional at ‘Walking The Talk?’ The Glass Breaker Awards celebrate those going above and beyond to advance diversity in the workplace. We’re going to shine a light on those who are willing to take action in difficult situations, even when there’s risk to themselves in doing so.
You can nominate for any of the four following awards on (see descriptions below) up until April 15th, and the Leading Ladies Of… advisory group will review the nominations and select the winners, who will be announced at the April 25th Summit.
Remember: not everyone is vocal and visible in their actions to promote gender parity. If someone has taken significant action for you quietly, and maybe even has no idea they have had such a big impact on you, please still consider nominating them.
