Leadership Forum

Local Activities, National Voice

“Our goal is to build a stronger community so we can talk to each other and do business with each other.” – Olsa, Oregon State Leadership Forum Representative and ASTRA National Forum Leader

The Leadership Forum represents a partnership and a powerful link between Astra and WBENC, the national organization for women that provides certification. Led by successful women business owners representing, Washington, Alaska, Montana, Idaho, Oregon and Northern California – the Leadership Forum serves as the voice of our region, communicating with WBENC to let them know our members’ needs and challenges so they can be addressed through future national events and programs.

The Leadership Forum also connects women-owned businesses with each other so that they can network, share ideas and offer solutions. This includes hosting regular gatherings featuring guest speakers and lots of time for member mingling. Check out upcoming events.
