Women WELDing the Way^®

Each November WELD honors 12 women making a positive impact on the economic and leadership development of women in our region by showcasing them and their achievements in a beautiful calendar for the upcoming year. The women featured in the calendar are selected based on their extraordinary leadership roles within their respective fields and in community and women’s efforts.

The Women WELDing the Way^® calendar is distributed widely throughout the community with a goal of reaching key executives in greater Cleveland’s top public and private companies. The 12 honorees are recognized at the elegant WELD Calendar Reception where the calendar is unveiled for the first time. The event has grown in size and visibility each year.

When we created WELD, we repeatedly heard three things: 

Consequently, each year we honor a diverse group of 12 women in our community who have lived the WELD values by supporting the leadership development of other women; these women have given their time, talent and resources to their community, or in support of women-owned businesses.

The greater Cleveland area has many extremely talented women who deserve recognition for all they do for others; the women we honor are ready to move to the next level of leadership. Please see the full list of calendar honorees from years past as well as the individual calendars from each year. These women have shown and continue to show the importance of women in key leadership roles and the success that they bring to their organizations as well as the community as a whole.
