BHS Named to Top 100 Women-Led Businesses
BOSTON — The Women's Edge together with its partner The Boston Globe, recently announced Berkshire Health Systems was again named one of the annual Top 100 Women-Led Businesses in Massachusetts.
The 100 organizations honored generated over $124 billion in total revenue in 2023, demonstrating that women leaders continue to be key drivers of the state's economy. This is the second year in a row that BHS has been recognized.
"On behalf of the more than 4,000 dedicated healthcare professionals that serve Berkshire County and the surrounding region], we are very grateful to The Women's Edge and Boston Globe for this recognition," said Darlene Rodowicz, President and CEO of Berkshire Health Systems.
This is the 24th year that The Women's Edge – a Boston-based nonprofit organization devoted to advancing women in leadership positions — created the list through a nomination process and reviewed both for-profit and not-for-profit organizations, and the 12th year that the list was created in collaboration with The Boston Globe.
"The organizations on this year's diverse list are driving $124 billion of revenue into the Massachusetts economy and innovation across the country, from increased manufacturing capacity to breakthroughs in clinical care and therapeutics" said The Women's Edge Chief Executive Officer Elizabeth L. Hailer. "We are honored to celebrate the Top 100 women leaders and hope it inspires others to drive for success here in our region and beyond."
In addition to revenue or operating budget, factors considered in the evaluation included workplace and management diversity, board makeup, and innovative projects. The full list will be published in the Globe Magazine's Women & Power issue at bostonglobe.com/magazine on November 1 and in print on Nov. 3.
"These 100 exceptional leaders, and the companies they run, are at the heart of the Massachusetts economy," said Globe Magazine editor Francis
