Connect with local women in franchising to excel in business, in life

First established in 2002 by the International Franchise Association's Women's Franchise Committee, and with chapters now active in 10 markets, Women's Franchise Network (WFN) chapters nationwide meet on a regular basis with one key objective: to make connections. As noted by repeated studies of the corporate world and publicized by respected authors such as Jim Collins, author of "Good to Great," the common threads of great companies are a culture that promotes idea-sharing and solid programs that cultivate mentor relationships within its workforce. Building on this corporate formula for success, the WFN's priority is to create a forum where women in franchising can build their personal and professional networks, mentor each other, address challenges. share strategies and present best practice examples to help them succeed in business and in life. Groups like the Women's Franchise Network are a valuable tool to connect, learn and grow as women in a powerful and growing US sector of the economy.
