Promoting Women Leaders in Utah

Women Leaders Utah, a program of the Women's Business Institute at Salt Lake Community College, is a virtual registry whose goal is to increase access to the expertise of women leaders throughout Utah.

Launched in 2009, the registry acts as a vehicle for identifying women leaders, building relationships, and expanding networks. This will result in expanded opportunities for organizations and individual growth by leveraging current and emerging women leaders' skills, competencies and track records in creating diverse results.

The goals of Women Leaders Utah are to:

  • Act as a comprehensive on-line cooperative network to attract private, government and non-profit sector decision makers who are seeking women leaders.
  • Serve as an educational and informational resource to connect organizations seeking women leaders with women who possess broad-based or unique skill sets appropriate to those organizations.
  • Provide a virtual forum to promote the personal and professional development of women interested in expanded or new leadership opportunities.

Registrants of Women Leaders Utah are women of diverse backgrounds and accomplishments. Our representatives include corporate executives, entrepreneurs, educators, elected and government officials, and social and healthcare workers among others.

Regardless of personal background, we are committed to making a positive difference in the lives of all women in Utah through exemplary leadership.

We invite you to join this dynamic resource and include your unique abilities as one of Utah's premier women leaders.

If you are a decision maker who has been challenged in identifying successful women to join your boards, commissions and teams -- please use this rapidly growing resource to identify and connect with outstanding prospects.

"When looking for new board members, the Women Leaders Utah registry made it so much simpler for us to find both fresh and seasoned individuals who are interested in our mission. Shortly after the registry launched in spring 2009, we found a bank executive who was a perfect fit for our board. I can't tell you how wonderful this is. Thank you WLU!"
