We are excited to participate in the premiere MACPA’s Women to Watch
awards, highlighting the accomplishments of women in the profession and
demonstrating to emerging female leaders that success is not out of
reach. The award, established by the AICPA, will provide a starting
point for the MACPA Board appointed Women’s and Diversity Initiative
Task Force and no doubt lead to important conversations about the issues
and resources we can bring to member firms and companies.
The awards are given in two categories: Emerging Leaders and Experienced
Leaders. Emerging Leaders are those women who are up-and-coming stars in
their organizations, while Experienced Leaders are those who have
established their roles as leaders in their organizations by advancing
to the highest levels of management or ownership, and by mentoring those
following in their footsteps.
Special appearance by in-coming AICPA Chair, Tommye Barie, CPA.
The Awards Breakfast will be followed by a “Ask a Leader” Networking
Event from 10:45- 11:45 AM. This fun and fast paced speed mentoring
event will allow participants to spend a few minutes with award
nominees, MACPA Board members and other leaders.
