An inspiring and emotional read. As a leader who has made it a goal to hire and promote with an “equality first” policy, I am proud to work for a company where members of our C-Suite share the same values as mine. I have been beyond lucky to work directly for leaders with those same values, Aaron Scime, Sherry Karamdashti and now Alexandra D'Amico Williams. The work doesn’t stop here! Supporting and enabling Women founders and investors with the same sponsorship and skills is critical for our industry to keep innovating at the pace it is. That’s why organizations like Springboard Enterprises are so important. 25 years of supporting women founders and we’re only getting better! Thank you Kay Koplovitz for your energy and leadership. Ladies, don’t let politics tell you otherwise - it’s our time to shine. ✨ 💪🚀
