Urban Land Institute Toronto’s Women’s Leadership Initiative (WLI) is now accepting nominations for the WLI Championship Team until March 15.
To advance and recognize women leaders, industry members are asked to nominate a female-identified leader who has demonstrated excellent leadership within the real estate development, land use, and city-building industry in the Greater Toronto and Greater Golden Horseshoe region.
A press release on International Women’s Day encourages people to identity women in their network who exude excellence, “particularly those from equity-seeking groups, including racialized people and people of all backgrounds, abilities, ages, ethnicities, gender identities or sexual orientations.”
2021 WLI Championship Team nomination criteria includes:
- A minimum of 10 years’ experience in either the public sector or the private sector focused on real estate, land use planning, or city building;
- Exceptional leadership skills within their employment sphere and externally;
- Dedication to, and success at, building or facilitating thriving and inclusive communities across the Greater Toronto Area and Greater Golden Horseshoe;
- Capacity to inspire others in the industry and related public sectors; and
Commitment to community initiatives as demonstrated through leadership in community organizations, mentoring activities, and industry-related organizations.
New inductees will be welcomed to the WLI Championship Team at the annual WLI reception in June. The 2021 reception will be held virtually. Click here to begin the nomination process.
