The mission of CWLI is to increase the leadership capabilities and influence of women in the Chattanooga community. On any given day, we mobilize more than 50 women into our community to shape the narrative for existing and emerging leaders. These professional women serve our community above and beyond the many roles they play in life; wife, mother, sister, daughter, employee. Women are unique and valuable contributors to society and whose opinions ultimately benefit the entire community, both socially and economically, but they continue to be under-represented in leadership roles. CWLI’s programs and activities are designed to help more women develop valuable leadership skills individually while also cultivating an ecosystem that is enthusiastic about including the unique talents of women in more leadership positions. Our desire is to realize improved outcomes for women at all levels of society by offering premiere training and networking for professional women of all ages, backgrounds and professions. Together, we will map a more positive future for women.
