G100 Next Steps for Chairs: Mandate, Mode & More:

Each G100 Chair is tasked with forming a group of 100 women within their respective wing.
G100 is structured with 100 wings, each led globally by a Global Chair.

Distributed Leadership

Global Chair nominates 100 Country Chairs across 100 countries (one per country).

Country Chair nominates 100 members in their respective country, either directly on the country advisory council or through distributed leadership. A Country Chair can also invite State Chairs, and State Chairs can invite City Chairs, to achieve the goal of 100 members or more.

Distributed leadership is recommended as it promotes further layers of leadership across the country, building energy and engagement at all community levels, which fuels the collective mission with actions at both local and global levels. However, if a Chair has an alternative approach to achieve the group of 100, it is welcome,provided a robust roadmap accompanies it.

From Group of 100 to Mission Million 

  • One Global Chair nominates 100 Country Chairs.
  • Each Country Chair nominates 100 leaders in their country club

At optimal capacity, each wing will have at least:

  • 100 Country Chairs * 100 Members = 10,000 members.
  • Across 100 wings, 10,000 * 100 leads to our Mission Million.

A million women, engaged and empowered, cannot be ignored. This is our tipping point for transformation and change.

Wing Roadmap

Each wing’s vision is provided by the secretariat, with a roadmap created by the Chairs at all levels, addressing both quantitative and qualitative goals.

  • Quantitative: Build at least 100 women leaders
  • Qualitative: Establishing guidelines for each group on:
  • Community & Social Media Outreach
  • Branding & Communication
  • Wing Summit, Events, and Engagements
  • Strategy & Policy
  • Impact & Influence
  • Delegations & Travel
  • High-Level Meetings
  • Public Meet & Greet
  • Reports & Recommendations
  • Documenting Best Practices
  • Cultivating Inter-Wing Synergies
  • Timelines & Milestones
  • Annual Calendar and Roster of Responsibilities, among others.
