Do you know an inspiring woman who seems to succeed in whatever they do? It’s possible you know several! If so, consider nominating them for an ATHENA Young Professional Award for the Greater Pittsburgh Area.
Established in 1982, the ATHENA Awards aim to recognize talented professional women under age 35 who not only excel in the workplace but as mentors to their communities. The award’s name is derived from Athena, the Greek goddess of strength and wisdom—and continues to be one of the largest annual gatherings of ATHENA International members across the globe.
Courtesy of ATHENA’s website, here are some of the requirements for Greater Pittsburgh ATHENA Award nominations:
