Pres. Blackhurst named to Top 25 Women in Business by Prairie Business magazine
Prairie Business magazine has announced its third annual Top 25 Women in Business list, which includes MSUM President Anne Blackhurst. Results are included in the March issue of the magazine, which is available at www.prairiebizmag.com.
The contest was created to draw attention to the many creative, successful businesswomen in North Dakota, South Dakota and western Minnesota. In its third year, the contest has become a popular annual feature of the magazine and inclusion on the list is considered a prestigious honor in the region’s business community.
“Prairie Business is pleased to present its Top 25 Women in Business, a list of female role models who exemplify motivation, determination and ambition,” says Prairie Business Editor Lisa Gibson. “They are leaders in their careers, in their families and in their communities. Congratulations to all of them.”
Honorees were selected through a nomination process that emphasized professional achievement, community contributions and work-life balance. These 25 women, chosen from a pool of about 150 nominees, come from a wide range of industries and have made significant impacts in their chosen professions, industries and communities.
