OnBoard Announces its 2014 Executive Leadership Honor Roll

ATLANTA - Oct. 8, 2014 - PRLog -- OnBoard, the leading authority on women in the boardrooms of Georgia public companies and a catalyst to increase female directors on all for-profit company boards, announces its annual Executive Leadership Honor Roll which recognizes women who are in executive leadership positions. It is awarded annually to three Georgia-based women leaders to highlight OnBoard's mission of increasing the number of women in executive leadership roles.

An honor roll recipient is a Georgia-based woman in a significant leadership role within her organization. She is a role model of career achievement and is building the credentials that place her in the pipeline, either now or in the future, for corporate board membership. The 2014 honorees are:

Terri Jondahl, Chairman and CEO of CAB Worldwide Holdings, Inc.

Suzanne Patterson, Vice President, Corporate Controller & Chief Accounting Officer of Coca-Cola Enterprises

Michele Sarkisian, President of P3Advisors.biz

“Since 2007, OnBoard has recognized women who excel in their profession as recognized by colleagues and who are active advocates and mentors for other women within their organizations,” says Jackie Parker, president of OnBoard’s Board of Directors and founder and managing partner of JWP Consulting LLC. “It is important that we highlight the qualities of these women who are poised and ready for board service and will bring valuable skills and experience to the boards they join.”

This year’s Executive Leadership Honor Roll recipients will be recognized at OnBoard’s Annual Awards and Study Dinner on Nov. 13, 2014. It is the 22^nd anniversary of the OnBoard study reporting on the state of women leadership in Georgia, along with OnBoard’s annual awards: the 2014 Executive Leadership Honor Roll and the 12^th presentation of the Lettie Pate Whitehead Evans Award to an outstanding woman board member.
