March 14, 2019 (New York) – Following yesterday’s 100WF Global Association Board meeting, the organization today announces the expansion of its Global Advisory Council and the appointment of Sarah Dyer as Chief Marketing Officer. These new appointments are aimed to help 100WF to further engage its growing membership and to support the volunteer committees now operating in 23 locations.
The 100WF Global Advisory Council will focus its efforts on enhancing connectivity and communications with 100WF’s growing global membership. The Global Advisory Council will be composed of incumbent and new representatives that reflect 100WF’s global community, and will function as ambassadors to volunteer committee leaders and members in each of 100WF’s locations. The Global Advisory Council will additionally provide valuable feedback to the CEO and 100WF Global Association Board about the needs and perspectives of the organization’s global membership.
The Global Advisory Council is chaired by Christina Bodden, a partner at Maples Group and a member of 100WF Global Association Board, and managed by regional Advisory Council leaders.
Amanda Pullinger, CEO of 100WF, explained, “The organization has experienced dramatic growth in recent years. With 23 official locations and more than 15,000 members around the world, including an expanded corps of active volunteers, we are evolving the Global Advisory Council’s mandate to address the opportunity to better engage and communicate with our global membership. My thanks go to both existing and new Advisory Council members for their time and passion for the mission and goals of the organization.”
