Business Resilience Award

This award was created for an outstanding, driven, member who shows resilience, who has persevered and who has shown tenacity in the face of challenge.  As our world was hit  by a global pandemic, many were put in a position of reflection. Many pivoted, many shifted focus and many reinvented themselves, they branded and prioritized very differently.  The Business Resilience Award is an embodiment of a member who triumphed over all in the face of challenge. This award is presented every June at our Annual General Meeting

 The Sue MacLaurin Leadership Memorial Award was an idea of the Brockville Women in Business to honor the memory of Sue MacLaurin.    Sue was an active member of our group who lost her battle with pancreatic cancer in November 2013. Sue was an inspiration, a role model and a friend to many of the women in our group. It was decided to create and present an award to someone who best emulates her qualities so the committee searched for the person who best mirrored Sue's drive and tenacity for business. This award was in place from 2014 - 2020
