Join us in shaping the future of Atlanta's Women...Join the Membership of AWN

From AWN Membership Director Carol Bunn

The Atlanta Women’s Network membership and guests continue to bask in the glow of last week’s WomenUP 2008, an evening filled with the energy created by more than 300 of Atlanta’s talented professional women. They came together to celebrate their talents and business interests, and to learn how to move up to their next level.

We will continue building on the tools we learned that evening and previously. Will continue building on the personal and business connections we have created, and invite the women of Atlanta who have not yet joined AWN, to invest in your own personal and professional growth by becoming a member of AWN.

Don’t miss gifting yourself with new tools, new connections, and contributing to shaping the future of our great city. Make your own mark on the business environment by joining us. We look forward to welcoming you!

AWN President Reports Highlights from WomenUP 2008

Dear fellow members of Atlanta Women’s Network,

Authenticity resonated from the Egyptian Ballroom on March 6th when more than 300 of Atlanta’s women and men celebrated International Women’s Day. Authenticity, along with proactivity and preparation, were presented by  Carol Frohlinger, our keynote speaker, as fundamental tools for enhancing success.

STATUS OF WOMEN
Annually, AWN marks this occasion with a report on the status of women in the workplace to provide our participants with insight and tools for enhancing their success.
 
Once again we see that women are making progress, but it is slow. The results this year show a persistent gender gap in wages ($0.77 for women, compared to each dollar men earned for equivalent work). Other gaps are under-representation of women on public company boards of directors (7.4% of boards of directors of Georgia public companies include women) and women leaving the corporate world at the rate of one per minute.
