Welcome to EWI Corporate!

Drawn from member firms all across North America, the Corporate Board of EWI is going to be in Alberta to support the launch of the Grande Prairie Chapter Charter. Congratulations to Grande Prairie, and to Calgary SpeedPro Signs owner Joanne Ruston for originally inspiring the Grande Prairie satellite chapter.   Our Corporate directors have decided to make the most of this rare opportunity and visit with as many Canadian Chapters as possible.


Our Chapter Board and Member Executives are organizing a luncheon presentation to honour the visiting delagates anticipated to include President Louise Anderson of Maurice H. Joseph Inc, Vice-President, Executive Director, Past President and Expansion Director of EWI.


To this point we have commitments to attend from City of Lethbridge Mayor Bob Tarleck, Cheryl Dyck, CEO of Economic Development Lethbridge, and Alberta MLA Bridget Pastoor. A HUGE thank you to Karen Skirten from Tier One Travel and Corporate Expansion Director of the Calgary Chapter  for her suggestion that we be involved in this Alberta visit.


EWI good news tidbit: In a year when most business membership organizations are dealing with shrinking numbers Executive Women International membership is up up by 12%!!
