Betsy Berkhemer-Credaire

50/50 Women on Boards CEO

Many women in government believe that their experience is not deep enough in corporate experience to be qualified for boards. In this strategy session, learn from Betsy Berkhemer-Credaire, CEO of 50/50 Women on Boards how government careers can lead to corporate boards. 

Betsy is the author of two books, The Board Game: How Smart Women Become Corporate Directors and Winning the Board Game: How Women Corporate Directors Make the Difference. She will share key lessons on how women can get appointed to corporate boards. 

We are giving away free copies of "The Board Game: How Smart Women Become Corporate Directors" to the first 5 RSVPs.

The Women's Caucus connects you to important policy makers, corporate, and civic leaders. We also offer leadership training opportunities and scholarships (e.g. CA Women Lead Workshops and USC Local Leaders Program). We have a full calendar of events and many other programs benefiting our members.

To join, you may submit membership dues through our online portal or fill out the membership form and send membership dues to:

Do you know a "Woman of Influence" who deserves

appreciation and recognition?

The League of California Cities Women's Caucus will highlight a "Woman of Influence" in our e-news. A "Woman of Influence" can be a community leader, a business leader, an elected official, or someone you think has made an influence in her chosen field, community, or beyond. Women make huge impacts in their workplaces and communities. As women continue to shatter glass ceilings and create their own paths to leadership positions, it is important that we support and recognize their success.  

Members and stakeholders are invited to submit nominations on a continuous basis. You can nominate a "Woman of Influence" here.
