Corporate Counsel and InsideCounsel are pleased to announce our honorees for our 2018 National Women in Law Awards. These awards honor general counsel, in-house leaders and law firm partners who have demonstrated a commitment to advancing the empowerment of women in law. These outstanding women will be recognized at an awards dinner on Oct. 3 as part of our Women, Influence & Power in Law Conference in Washington, D.C.
With these awards, we want to spotlight North American women in-house and law firm leaders who have demonstrated extraordinary leadership and business acumen as they have guided their organizations through often treacherous roads to achieve success. These women stand out because they are business strategists, complex problem-solvers, and of course, great lawyers. And as important (especially to them) is that they are great people-leaders—they care more about the success of the team than their individual success.
Our Women in Law awards recognize legal department leaders in the following industries: Banking & Finance; Insurance; Transportation & Infrastructure; Manufacturing & Chemicals; Technology, Media & Telecom; and Retail & Consumer Goods. We also are highlighting extraordinary leadership by recognizing female general counsel and law firm partners in the following categories: Innovative Leadership; Thought Leadership; Collaborative Leadership; Transformative Leadership; General Counsel of the Year or Managing Partner of the Year; and Lifetime Achievement.
Congrats to all the amazing women on this list!
