2010 Women of Distinction Awards

Each year at the Women's Leadership Conference, Georgia Tech honors women who demonstrate exemplary leadership abilities. These are women who lead with heart, creating innovative solutions while inspiring and uplifting the entire Georgia Tech Community. The Women's Leadership Conference is seeking to honor a female leader who awakens the passion for success of those around her. She encompasses the ideals of a successful leader, radiating a demeanor that compels others to do the same. Her consistent determination to challenge herself helps her to "Rise Above the Ordinary."
