The Diversity Journal has recognized Partner Catherine Carroll on its annual list of Women Worth Watching, which honors executive trailblazers for their passion, potential, and positive influence both inside and outside the workplace. For 16 years, women who have made significant contributions to their respective organizations have been featured in this special issue of Diversity Journal.

“The diversity of women, and their experiences and achievements, is inspiring and motivating,” said Diversity Journal Publisher James Rector. “It is refreshing to see how many companies have opened pathways for women to advance into leadership and reaped the rewards of their contributions.”

In Carroll's profile, she advises women to, “Speak up. Raise your hand for opportunities, and ask for help and advice when you need it. Be prepared, and then let your voice be heard to show the value you add.” Read her profile.
