Overview

Mission

To address the drastic drop-off of women in business between middle management and c-level position by bridging the knowledge and experience gap of women in these roles via mentorships. Women evolution sheds light on the lack of role models for women in corporate positions by providing a free resource for women to learn from their successful counterparts.

What it reported doing in 2021

Women evolution will suppport and promote the employment of women in middle management and c-level positions. The organization will provide for mentorship between current executive-level business women and women who have career aspirations of reaching c-level positions. The organization will offer featured and private mentorships to address the glass ceiling limitations. Featured mentorships will be highlighted on the website and will include videos of face-to-face meetings and weekly check-ins that will be documented in a webisode format. The organization's website will provide a platform for visitors to submit video applications to become a mentee, watch videos of current and past mentorships and gain access to information and resources specific to women in management positions. Women evolution will provide one-on-one mentorships ranging from six months to one year which are professionally documented and posted online for others to follow. The website will also provide a resource location for an online community of women professionals.
