And, more importantly, we mobilize our collective power to change the culture of business.

Ellevate is where change makers cultivate their voice, build bridges to understand, and mobilize for impact. We work with leading companies to help them hire, retain, and improve diversity, equity, and inclusion within their organizations. - Ellevate Network (formerly known as 85 Broads) was started in 1997 by Janet Hanson, one of the first women to be promoted to sales management at Goldman Sachs. Janet, who had taken a leave from work, found herself (like many of us do at one time or another) in need of some clarity, and wondering “what’s next?” She realized quickly that in order to gain the insights she needed and build a new path, she needed people who could shed some light. And that’s how 85 Broads came to life — an unofficial network for women who worked or had worked at Goldman Sachs. The name, 85 Broads, was a reference to Goldman Sach’s old headquarters located at 85 Broad Street in New York City. The network quickly expanded to include women in other companies and in all industries. The network was rebranded to Ellevate Network in 2014, reflecting the evolution of the community from its finance roots to a more widely diverse group of ambitious, powerful, supportive, and kind women who believe that, together, we can change the culture of business. https://megaphone.imgix.net/podcasts/cd23e39a-a9e0-11f0-9cb1-a3122563580c/image/e8300a8fe7c31808d2bd2432fcdcbfd4.jpg?ixlib=rails-4.3.1&max-w=3000&max-h=3000&fit=crop&auto=format,compress Ellevate Network: Conversations With Women Changing the Face of Business https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/ellevate-network-conversations-with-women-changing-the-face-of-business--6714378 no episodic On the Ellevate Podcast you’ll meet women+ having a real impact.
