Dallas, TX. (January 13, 2009) -- w2wlink.com, the premier professional women community announces its first Ascendancy Awards for Business Women. The awards will go to outstanding women who have "ascended" to achieve and innovate in Corporate, in Entrepreneurial and in Career Transition settings.
w2wlink.com initiated the Ascendancy Awards to recognize, reward and inspire women to maximize their potential in their careers. Lisbeth McNabb, Founder and CEO w2wlink said "Our vision is to inspire and recognize women who are ascending professionally and mentoring other women around them--as these key steps will link to driving higher levels of women in the executive ranks, more entrepreneurs with growing businesses and more female directors on boards in the next decade."
w2wlink.com is accepting nominations for candidates from eight cities: Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Dallas/Ft. Worth, Houston, New York, San Francisco and Washington D.C. They are also accepting nominations for at-large candidates from any other city. Three winners from each category--Corporate, Entrepreneur, and Career Transition--will be chosen from the nominees from each city and from the at-large category. From these twenty-seven winners, an executive women advisory board will select three National Winners.
In addition to recognition for their accomplishments, the National Winners will each receive a prize of a private business club membership for one year from ClubCorp, www.clubcorp.com, and a pair of round-trip tickets to any destination in the contiguous United States from American Airlines, www.aa.com/women, along with other sponsored prizes.
