Fridays are for Fierce (South) Florida Females

Inspired by our Chair, Fierce Female Penny Shaffer (Market President – South Florida, Florida Blue), The Beacon Council will be joining the #FierceFemaleFriday movement. We’ll be highlighting some of our business community’s many strong, influential women on our social media platforms, as well as in our newsletter. Our goal is to inspire and empower a whole new generation of leaders by celebrating these incredible women’s many successes and sharing their stories.

While we have many Fearless Females that come to mind, we are counting on YOU to help us find the best stories to share with our community. If you are a Fearless Female doing business in Miami-Dade (or know someone who is!), please submit your nominations for consideration to Tere Garcia (tgarcia@www.beaconcouncil.com).
