It's so much better when someone else handles it. Here is your Sunday issue of WINS List.

One of the reasons I founded WINS was to address the lack of support available to women founders and executives in securing opportunities that would propel them further, faster in their careers.

In the sports business — an industry where women account for only 20% of the C-Suite — there is work to be done. During my 15 years in that business, I was very aware of this statistic. I knew that if we were going to make that number move, we were going to have to do something differently… something extra.

✅ Submitting award nominations is just one way we are contributing to the shift.

Awards open doors to new opportunities. They build credibility and awareness. A single award can change the trajectory of someone’s career. And frankly, I find it really sad when a deserving woman leader doesn’t get recognized for her work simply because she wasn’t nominated.

WISE — Women in Sports and Events — is an organization that shares many of the same goals and values as WINS. Founded in 1993 to support women through networking and education, WISE offers year-long programming for women in sports and events in chapters across the country.

Nominations are now open for the annual WISE Women of the Year Award. As always, WINS is here to provide support in submitting nominations. Scroll for details.

Thank you for being a valued subscriber of WINS List.

Expand your influence. Build your wealth. Celebrate your success.

Hot 🔥 Opp: WISE Women of the Year 2026

Women in Sports & Events (WISE) has opened their nomination form for next year’s Women of the Year award, recognizing extraordinary women who have broken barriers, acted as a voice for other women, and made a significant impact on the business of sports.

Each spring, the WISE Women of Year are honored at a luncheon that brings together the sports business community to celebrate women leaders and advocate for greater support and opportunities for all women. Last year, five women were honored at this event.

Nominations for the 2026 WISE Women of the Year are open through August 26. You must be an active member of WISE to submit a nomination.

WINS Personal Brand Concierge members can tap us to submit a nomination on their behalf — or on behalf of industry colleagues. (Yes, we can do that!)
