Young Women in Business Leadership Award

Women have made remarkable strides in education, business and professional leadership, but they remain underrepresented where the most important decisions are made. Globally, women hold just 32.9% of senior management positions, and only 23.8% of CEO roles in the mid-market businesses tracked by Grant Thornton.

The Zonta Women in Business Leadership Award celebrates exceptional women entrepreneurs and leaders who are breaking barriers, and making a difference in their fields. By recognizing and supporting emerging women leaders, Zonta is investing in a future where women have an equal voice in shaping the decisions that affect workplaces, communities and economies.

Zonta International annually offers 10 international awards of US$5,000 each and a complimentary one-year supporting membership in Zonta International for the next financial year.
