The Women's Leadership Program at Babson has evolved into a major College initiative to make Babson the first business school, among the top 50 B-schools ranked in Business Week magazine, with a dedicated center for women in business and entrepreneurship. With a goal of advancing women in their business, entrepreneurial, and related life pursuits, the Babson program includes new student scholarships, alumnae leadership councils, mentoring groups, faculty research and case writing, and a partnership with Independent Means Inc., an organization dedicated to promoting economic literacy among female youth. With these initiatives Babson has firmly set the foundation for a comprehensive institute focusing on women's leadership in business. Our mission is to position Babson in the forefront of educating future women entrepreneurs and managers.
Results are positive and growing.
