CGO faculty member receives prestigious Anna Maria Arias award
Dr. Evangelina Holvino, Senior Research Faculty at the Center for Gender in Organizations, has been awarded the 2005 Anna Maria Arias Memorial Business Fund award by Wells Fargo & Company.
This announcement was made at the United States Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (USHCC) national convention held in Milwaukee on September 15. In partnership with LATINAStyle Magazine and the USHCC, Wells Fargo presented 10 Latina entrepreneurs with the Anna Maria Arias Memorial Business Fund award and a $5,000 cash grant. These Latina small business owners were chosen for their entrepreneurial spirit and dedication to the community. “These women prove that hard work, dedication, talent, and passion can lead to becoming a successful small business owner,” said Tim Rios, national spokesperson for Wells Fargo’s Latino Business Services program. “They’re excellent role models and demonstrate the importance of Latina entrepreneurs in building a stronger economy.”
Dr. Holvino was recognized for her work with Chaos Management, a company she co-founded that provides diversity consulting, workshops, and research in an effort to advance diversity, enhance group and leadership skills, and promote organizational change and social equity.
