How Maranda is building a better working world

While serving as the Indianapolis Professional Women’s Network leader, Maranda focused on creating opportunities for younger women to connect in meaningful ways with partners and leaders, to contribute to ideas for change and to enhance their career objectives through a supportive mentoring community. Her purpose-driven focus within her career led her to the Winning Women program, which serves and supports high-potential women founders.

Winning Women is a competitive executive education and networking program that selects high-potential women entrepreneurs whose businesses show true potential to scale — and then supports them as they do it.

Maranda finds it a true privilege to be part of an ecosystem that connects ambitious, growth-minded women with the advisors and resources they need to scale.
