Women Leading KY has been a tremendous blessing in my life as it has allowed me a chance to meet and network with other powerful ladies. I can say that I get excited every time there is a new event as I will have a chance to meet some other movers and shakers in the industry. I have worked with the committee on identifying scholarship recipients and have invited other ladies to come to WLK events. Thank you to WLK for the sessions on Leadership as it has allowed me a chance to interview for leadership roles and I landed my dream job!

I have been impressed with how Women Leading Kentucky manages to bring women together, build each other up, and help one another both in and out of the workplace. You can tell they are truly passionate and care!

I am honored to serve as a member of the Women Leading Kentucky board of directors. We are driven by a passion to help and serve others. The Women Leading Kentucky’s mission to support and promote women-owned businesses by helping them achieve greater prosperity and quality of life is creating a lasting legacy that makes Kentucky better and stronger.

I absolutely love being a part of Women Leading Kentucky! Thanks to this wonderful network, I have grown my circle of friends and influence significantly. Their events are always a joy to be a part of, informative, and beautifully executed. You feel welcome and a part of the family from day one! We all need a group of strong, inspiring women we can rely on in the middle of all the daily challenges we face. Thank you WLKY for all you do to keep us connected!

Women Leading Kentucky creates a supportive environment where event guests can be comfortable and encouraged to network. Our shared commitment to the success of women leaders is just one reason by PNC continues to maintain a long term relationship with the organization. We look forward to providing our employees ongoing opportunities to expand their professional careers and personal growth through PNC’s year-round sponsorship of Women Leading Kentucky and the quality programming they deliver.

Commerce Lexington Inc. has partnered with Women Leading Kentucky for many years. Our team has found both the Roundtables and the Annual Business & Leadership Conference to be valuable and educational while creating networking opportunities. Relationship-building is key to enhancing personal and professional development, and Women Leading Kentucky continues to provide top-notch programming that helps our team connect with others in the community and learn from many successful businesses and community leaders across the Bluegrass Region.

As the owner of J. Render’s Southern Table & Bar, I feel that Women Leading Kentucky is a great partner to my business.  Their organization and events enable me to meet other women in leadership roles and I am able to learn from their experiences.  And, the networking opportunities are invaluable because as a small business it has introduced us to women from all walks of life. And, one of J. Render’s driving missions is to give back to the community in which we work and live and WLK is a great avenue to achieve this. My donations have a direct impact on women in our community, so it is a win-win.  I feel there is nothing more powerful than women supporting other women and WLK is a perfect example of this.

Women Leading Kentucky inspires, informs and embraces it’s participants. It has been an instrumental part of my networking for two non-profits for ten years and they have stepped up to help One Parent Scholar House residents to attend college through scholarships and support! Empowering women to be successful, connecting with each other through powerful success stories and making sure we know we are all in this together – this is WLK!

When I first moved to Lexington, Women Leading Kentucky was one of the first groups that I started building my network with. They’ve always been inviting and welcoming. We’ve participated in many of the Roundtables discussions over the years and always attend the annual conference. As a result of my relationship with WLK, I’ve had the pleasure of building a very meaningful network (personally and professionally) that I will cherish for years to come.

After years of attending Roundtables, joining the Women Leading Kentucky board of directors has been incredibly rewarding! I am so grateful for the professional networking this group provides. I currently sit on the strategic planning committee and have been working alongside some awesome women to ensure this organization continues to be sustainable and impactful.
