Women in Retail Leadership Circle (WIRLC) is an exclusive community of women executives at leading retailers and brands.
About us
✨ 𝐁𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐭 𝐛𝐲 𝐖𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧 | 𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐖𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧 | 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐖𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧 ✨ 𝐖𝐡𝐨 𝐖𝐞 𝐀𝐫𝐞 Women in Retail Leadership Circle (WIRLC) is an exclusive community of women executives at leading retailers and brands. Our mission is to foster leadership development for our members by providing an unparalleled mix of events, content and elite connections. Our community is comprised of successful, motivated and passionate women from the entire retail and brand ecosystem who have a strong belief that investing in themselves and in other women is good business. From CEOs with years of experience to directors working their way up, the common thread is women coming together to learn from each other and help each other succeed. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐖𝐞 𝐎𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫 Focused on both business strategy and executive professional development, WIRLC offers women leaders the opportunity to network, discuss industry issues, and learn how to become better leaders. The energized core of our community stems from the dedicated members who believe and support our mission. Beyond directly connecting with the industry’s elite women leaders, benefits of membership include discounted event registration, exclusive member-only content, a private networking forum, and so much more. 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐖𝐞 𝐆𝐨𝐭 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞 WIRLC is the sister brand of Total Retail, the go-to source for executives looking for the latest news and analysis on the retail industry. WIRLC was founded by Jennifer DiPasquale and Melissa Campanelli to address the inequity between women in leadership positions within the retail industry vs. overall women in the industry. A space was needed to connect and uplift these women, and WIRLC was born. 𝐉𝐨𝐢𝐧 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐢𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬. 𝐕𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐛𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐰!
