OUR HISTORY
 
     EWI was established in California in 1938 when Lucille Johnson Perkins recognized the importance and potential of an association of key women working with their executives to promote their firms and improve their community. On April 29 of that year, Articles of Incorporation were filed with the State of California under the name of Executives’ Secretaries, Inc.
     In May 1939, the Los Angeles business community recognized the value of such an organization, and that city’s chapter was chartered, and EWI was on its way. Since then, additional cities throughout the United States, Canada, and Europe have joined, forming a prestigious and exclusive networking organization of key firms and individuals.
     During the 30th Annual Meeting of the corporation (May 1977), the organization’s name was changed to “Executive Women International.” This change reflects the international expansion of the organization and recognizes the changing roles of women in business and the diverse careers held by its representatives.
OUR PRINCIPLES
 
Through the combined efforts of our member firms and representatives we strive to:
  • Achieve world-class status as an organization through applied standards of excellence.
  • Forge and cultivate mutual business and professional goals through personal association and interchange.
  • Afford the opportunities and structure for leadership and professional development.
