The New York Women’s Foundation’s President and CEO Ana Oliveira has been nominated for the Crain’s 2024 Women of Influence award. The winners will be announced at an event on May 1.
“The year 2024 feels like a moment when New York City is taking a deep breath and asking, so what’s next? What do we want for this great city now that we’ve put behind us a pandemic that shook and realigned the world?
The cast of 11 women chosen by Crain’s newsroom and poIled here are crafting the answers. They oversee enormous organizations like the FDNY and NYSE, channel the needs of business through City Hall and the Partnership for New York City, and shape policy on crucial issues. Many questions of fairness, legality, health and shelter are in their hands. Crain’s is also recognizing women and organizations who were nominated as Mentors, Rising Stars and Women-Forward Workplaces. Mentors have successfully lifted up many other women in their careers and the community. Rising Stars are emerging leaders who have promoted programs advancing women. Women-Forward Workplaces are where women have a voice in planning and operations, and these employers have policies in place that help women grow.”
