She Runs It’s Post

We've had some incredible events over the last few months and it reminds us of our why... In 1906, women were denied entry into the first incorporated advertising league in New York City. Instead of accepting the status quo, Christine Frederick took action. In 1912, she founded the League of Advertising Women—an organization built to provide women with resources, access, and tools to grow their careers. Over the years, this organization evolved into Advertising Women of New York and in 2016, we became She Runs It. While our name has changed, our mission remains the same: 💡 Advancing women as leaders through: 🤝 Networking – Creating powerful connections 🎓 Mentorship – Elevating the next generation 📢 Advocacy – Championing equity in marketing, media, and tech Christine Frederick paved the way, and we’re continuing the journey—unlocking women’s unique ability to drive business success and shape the future of leadership. 💬 Who has paved the way for you in your career?
