Honoring Women's History Month
Updated: Mar 3, 2021
This March we join women across the nation as we celebrate Women’s History Month (March). In doing so, we also want to recognize those who are making history, like the many individuals featured in this edition of my “Intergistic Intel News Magazine.”
Intended to “bring you news from our network,” we are celebrating numerous women affiliated with the University of Denver--either as alums of the Daniels Executive MBA Program, such as Mary Rhinehart, Flo Mostaccero, Kirsten Benefiel, Andrea Passman, etc., or as influential women in the Denver area, such as Dr. Patty Gabow, Dr. Ellie Greenberg and others. Also highlighted is Dr. Dawn Graham, TEDx Speaker, LinkedIn Learning Instructor, Host of the popular call-in show “Dr. Dawn on Careers” on SiriusXM Radio and author of the book “Switchers.” Dawn, who received her PhD in Counseling Psych from DU, is the Director of Career Management for Executive MBA’s at the Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania.
These ladies are being featured because of the positions they hold across numerous industries—Heath Care, Manufacturing, Consulting, Engineering Services, Security, Oil and Gas, Public Relations, Education, Hospitality, Real Estate and Canibus. Each is making her mark.
Please know there are many, many other individuals who could be included. Some were already noted in one of my former issues--Veteran’s Day, Start-Up Week, Health Care, and there are more to come.

Women’s History Month is designed to celebrate the contributions women have made to the U.S. throughout the ages.
Let’s celebrate the accomplishments of women this month and always …
