Testimonials from some of our founding members
“I am so excited to see L500 come to life. I am honored to be part of such a group of talented women. But more than having great discussions with super smart women, we can come together to set change in motion! We have a great opportunity to support and lend insight to our colleagues that sets forward a cycle of paying it forward. I look forward to learning, listening and growing myself through this network of talented women.”

“Being born and raised in Peru, I was exposed early on to the lack of diversity in organizations and specifically the lack of Latinas in positions of power. My journey brought me to the U.S. and as I moved up in my career, I saw a similar pattern in executives positions. We need organizations like L500 whose mission is to increase Latinas in the C-Suite. I am proud to be part of this organization that aligns with my mission to amplify the amazing work Latinas do every day and raise awareness at the C-Suite.”

“We live in a world where much is said and not enough is done. The L500 community is driven by the commitment to drive real actions for real changes, where Latina leaders can connect and partner to open doors to grow the presence of Latina Women in leadership roles. We also want to prepare and inspire the new generation to reach their full potential!.”

“I strongly believe that actions are better than words. L500 is a network that helps connect Latina leaders with the same passion for empowering each other into executive roles and creating opportunities to create programs that will help give back to our community. Executive Latinas have the responsibility to lead the way and be a representative voice within the LatinX community. We must open the doors and assist the future young Latinas leaders that are yet to come.”

“The community created by the L500 allows us to come together as we recover from the pandemic, learn new roles, join new organizations and support each other no matter the stage of our careers. As a member of the L500 I hope to support our members and learn from this inspiring community as we help grow Latina senior leadership in corporate America. As they say, we cannot be what we do not see and we need to see each other.”
