Champions of Change
Who are the influencers making a difference for diverse communities? Which companies in our community are shaping the future by advancing women in business?
The Colorado Women's Chamber of Commerce's Champions of Change Awards focuses on recognizing organizations of various sizes that are actively and strategically advancing women in business through their commitment to creating inclusive, supportive, and empowering cultures.
Businesses are rated on:
- Strategic imperative to advance women within the business to leadership positions. This would include a focus on recruitment, pipeline advancement and creating an inclusive workplace.
- Ensuring employees are being paid based on performance, skill, or education to ensure no gender gap exists.
- Innovative and out of the box thinking to recruit and retain top talent.
- Allyship - creating allyship for diverse and underrepresented communities
