“This award is our way of extending gratitude to these women who go over and beyond the typical Board role to make a lasting impact on our organization,” says Cheryl Boswell, WIN Past Chair. “Yen Hoang and Elizabeth Stein represent what WIN stands for - leadership and a commitment to bettering the collision repair industry. We are so lucky to have these women be a part of our organization.”
The Cornerstone Award recipients for 2021 are:
Yen Hoang - “Yen has served on the WIN board for six years and she helped build the sustainability of WIN,” says Boswell. “Under her leadership, the finance team is more robust than ever. The financial policies, platform and processes put WIN in the perfect position to continue to grow and support the future of the industry.”
Elizabeth Stein - “Liz has helped lead the initiative to bring WIN back to our members during the pandemic and as well as lead the team to reconnect with lapsed WIN members,” says Boswell. “Under her leadership, the Membership committee created a robust monthly webinar series and platform for the future.”
