Leadership Spotlight

The newly formed Wharton Women's Task Force launched last fall. The mission of the task force is to encourage and develop women's leadership at all life stages by building community, connectivity, and spirit among all Wharton women and providing valuable services and support to its constituents.

The task force is conducting a global initiative to include all Wharton women. This began with a survey, completed during March, to determine what types of programs and services are needed in order to achieve its mission. A substantial group of alumnae participated in this survey, and the consolidated results will be presented to the Dean and the School's Executive Committee in May. The success of the task force depends on the support of all Wharton women. Through the combined efforts of the alumnae, students, administration, and the newly forming local Wharton Women's Networks, the task force strives to increase communication among Wharton women and advocate women's leadership in order to create an active network.
