Women Lead Program

Our Women Lead Program is dedicated to showcasing inspiring leaders by highlighting their stories. Our goal for this program is to learn from and be inspired by women leaders in the field of Third Party Risk Management (TPRM) throughout various industries.

Resource Sharing Library

Our Women in TPRM Resource Sharing Library contains a variety of women in business-related materials. Included are reports on the latest women in business trends and statistics, blogs and articles on relevant and current happenings, and TED Talks featuring inspiring women in business educating others on how to navigate the business world and find success in their careers. 

Leadership Ladders

Originally developed by TPRA's Women in TPRM "Lead" work group, this training activity is designed for all current & aspiring leaders within the Third Party Risk Management (TPRM) industry. Inspired by the classic "Shoots and Ladders" game, it is an all-in-one roadmap to leadership in the form of a nostalgic, virtual board game! Each box on the board is linked to a valuable resource–including customized guides, blogs, videos, quizzes, and more–with the goal of enhancing your leadership potential through buildable skills and expert insights. Any professional, regardless of what stage they're at in their career, can find value in this activity.

"Diversity matters not just because increasing representation of minorities and women in a fast growing and critical field is the right thing to do, but because a variety of viewpoints are key to solving hard problems."

"With different backgrounds and perspectives and voices at the table and in an environment where their contributions are really valued, you benefit from a much more expansive conversation and one that’s much more likely to uncover the full range of possibilities and solutions."
