Happy holidays from the Women in Retail Leadership Circle team! As we close out another transformative year, it’s with immense gratitude and pride that we celebrate the contributions of our 2025 advisory board. These visionary leaders have not only completed a remarkable term but have also left an indelible mark on the trajectory of our community:

At the heart of Women in Retail Leadership Circle is the idea of connection — the bonds that unite women leaders and enable them to lift one another higher. Our advisory board has been the bridge to these connections, creating opportunities for members to engage with some of the most influential women in the retail industry. Through the board members’ efforts, they have cultivated a sense of belonging that resonates deeply with our community.

From providing feedback on how to make our annual Women in Retail Leadership Summit the most rewarding experience possible to sharing their wisdom on our stages, the board’s insights and leadership played a pivotal role in driving the success of Women in Retail Leadership Circle and its members. For that we are forever grateful!

Stay tuned for the announcement of our 2026 advisory board in the new year! To our outgoing board members, THANK YOU!

And as we welcome the new year, we’re hitting the ground running with our next Member Workshop on Jan. 8.
