“This year’s Women in Leadership scholarship recipients represent the future of our industry, showcasing remarkable potential and unwavering commitment to advancing their careers in staffing,” said Brenna Barnett, chair of the Women in Leadership scholarship program taskforce. “The Women in Leadership scholarship program is designed to support and empower these talented women, providing them with invaluable opportunities to network, learn, and grow. We are confident that this program will help them take the next significant step in their professional journeys.”
Each recipient will attend two ASA events at no charge: THRIVE Live, Oct. 21–22, and Staffing World® 2024, Oct. 22–24, at the Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center in Nashville, TN.
These scholarships are made possible with the generous support of donors to the ASA Foundation. In 2023 and 2024, notable donations were received in memoriam of Marietta Vickrey and Loretta Penn—two women who inspired many staffing industry leaders. ASA honors Vickrey’s and Penn’s legacies, which funded numerous scholarships this year. To see a complete list of donors, visit the ASA Foundation.
