The WWN Recognition Award is an annual award that recognizes up to five women currently employed at Yale who have been exemplary members of the community at Yale. The individuals receiving this honor may be selected for a wide range of achievements, but overall, will have distinguished themselves through a commitment to changing the University through their personal efforts. For example, an awardee could have had an impact on a project or team by demonstrating a positive attitude, gone beyond the call of duty to get the job done, or demonstrated a love for learning new skills.
The nomination process is open to women Yale employees in the following job categories: Service and Maintenance (S&M), Clerical and Technical (C&T), and Managerial and Professional (M&P). Up to five award recipients will be chosen; one for each category. Nominations may be made until Friday, December 20th.
Nominators are asked to submit their nominations in one of the following five categories:
- A Trailblazer: a woman who utilizes opportunities to customize a new career path at Yale.
- A Heroine: a woman who advocates, mentors, or nurtures others at Yale.
- A Visionary: a woman who has been a champion for change at the University.
- A Community Catalyst: a woman who leads in a volunteer capacity at Yale or through a Yale initiative.
- A Work Life Champion: a woman who takes unusual or extraordinary measures to balance work and family.
