Denise Smith, Every Girl Shines Chief Engagement Officer awarded WPO’s prestigious President Award.
The President’s Award recognizes WPO members who have gone above and beyond in their commitment to the WPO organization and their support of women business leaders. This award has the distinction of being personally selected by WPO CEO, Camille Burns. The 2021 award was, for the first time in its history, presented to a group who gave their heart and soul over the course of the last year to WPO members: The WPO Chapter Chairs.
Denise is a chapter chair, leading a chapter comprised of women CEOs whose businesses generate 2 million and up in annual revenue. Her chapter’s aggregate revenue is 65 million.
The WPO Chapter Chairs have shown what it means to live the values of the WPO, and be supportive, thoughtful, tenacious, insatiably curious, and community-focused. Their resiliency and flexibility in service to the members of their chapter and to the wider community the WPO has built around the world have been nothing short of amazing. The mission of the WPO is to facilitate greatness within its members, and they have truly facilitated greatness in the past year and beyond.
