Toronto, Ontario – Nominations are officially open for the Women’s Industry Network (WIN) annual Most Influential Women awards from now until Jan. 25.
This year’s winners will be recognized during the virtual 2021 WIN Educational Conference in May 2021, in lieu of an in-person event.
Any woman working in the collision repair industry in the U.S. or Canada is eligible to be nominated and are not required to be WIN members.
“We are excited that we have modified the process to make it easier to nominate those amazing women you work with in this industry. This is a great way to bring honour to someone you know who has contributed to the collision industry,” said Kathy Mello, WIN MIW committee co-chair and 2019 MIW honoree.
WIN also took the opportunity to honour three of last year’s award-winners: Kristle Bollans, Director, Replacement Accounts, The Hertz Corporation; Sandee Lindorfer, Director, Allstate Insurance; Christy Jones Owner, R Jones Collision 1, Des Moines, Iowa.
“It is an honour to recognize these three women this year as the Most Influential Women in the Collision Repair Industry,” said Marie Peevy, President Automotive Training Coordinators, a 2018 MIW Honoree, and Co-Chair of the 2020 MIW Committee.
“They are strong women who support other women and are passionate about what they do. They have the ability to dream and transform while helping others in the industry, their communities and families.”
