MIW Inspires Minnesota North Stars

• Mentoring and Inspiring Women in Radio, Inc. (MIW), a 501(c)(3) charitable organization dedicated to the advancement of female leadership in radio broadcasting, proudly announces a new national program designed to create mentorship opportunities in every state in the union. This three to five-year strategic plan exponentially expands the organization’s mentoring outreach across the United States, and the inaugural pilot program partners MIW with the Minnesota Broadcasters Association to create “Mentoring and Inspiring Women in Minnesota.”

MIW’s long term plan includes establishing close working relationships with leadership from all interested State Broadcasters Associations and broadcasters across the country to create mentorship curriculums for female professionals in radio broadcasting. With MIW’s guidance, these state-centered programs will be based on the tenets, structure, and best practices of MIWs broad array of successful and established mentoring opportunities.

MIW Board President Ruth Presslaff said, “This program is designed to dramatically expand our mentorship outreach. We couldn’t ask for a better first partner than Wendy Paulson and the Minnesota Broadcasters Association as we work toward a mentee in every state. Cheers to the first… Forty-nine to go!”

Wendy Paulson, President of the Minnesota Broadcasters Association commented, “Minnesota’s Broadcasting community is full of amazing and talented women! I am honored to be the lead on this pilot program and invite women from across our state to learn more information and apply online.”
