Achieving goals is how businesses succeed, and our community has grown from layers of success built upon other layers of success. Powering this is the commitment of those who “can” to help others also succeed — proving the truth of the adage, “A rising tide lifts all boats.”
This issue presents our 2018 Women of Achievement. Each of these 14 women has proven her involvement in our business community and her connection to doing good for our community, and has demonstrated great success in business. Their varied strengths are part of the mesh that binds and supports the greater community and attests to the collective achievement of women in business.
To honor and celebrate these women, we present on the following pages profiles of our honorees, in which they share their stories. And they will share the spotlight again at our Women of Achievement luncheon on Oct. 5 at the Arizona Biltmore. We also honor Sharon Lechter, this month’s Guest Editor, as this year’s recipient of the Linda M. Herold Lifetime Achievement Award.
Please meet our 2018 Women of Achievement.
