Cobb Executive Women is dedicated to cultivating mutually beneficial and supportive professional relationships among executive women in Cobb County. This is accomplished by providing diverse opportunities for educating, inspiring, and empowering women leaders to achieve their full potential. Activities include luncheons, seminars and speakers. CEW also sponsors the Woman of Distinction Award, given annually to an individual who has supported the growth and advancement of women in business.
Monthly luncheons highlight the key roles Cobb's women leaders play in the economy and community. In addition, the program explores how women-owned and managed businesses continue to thrive in the pro-business environment fostered by the Cobb Chamber.
CEW is always looking for new members who are at the executive level with their companies, have a strong record of community involvement, are members of the Chamber and are responsible for decision making and managing staff. Most CEW events are members only, and there is an application process. Dues for CEW are $125 per year, with a one-time $25 new member fee.
Potential members are invited to attend no more than two meetings.
Cobb Chamber Chairman's Club members can receive complimentary dues for one year, upon acceptance, for new CEW members only. This discount does not cover luncheon costs.
