1. Women’s Innovative
Network
Connecting and supporting women in a
diverse, empowered workplace.
Diversity is the art of thinking
independently and differently, but
coming together with shared purpose
and values. And while diversity is an
everyday reality for society as a whole,
in business a diverse employee base
increases creativity, innovation and
profitable growth.
WIN’s mission combines three focus
areas into a single purpose: to promote
diversity overall and support women’s
growth and success in particular.
Bringing Self,
Company and
Community
Together
Three Focus Areas­—One Mission
■ A safe forum for personal growth, mutual
understanding and support for women at FNC
■ Professional excellence, diversity of thought in the
workplace, and applying the FNC Culture Pillars
■ Connecting with external communities to promote
technology and business education and opportunity
for women
How do I Join WIN?
Simple—just join in! WIN does not charge dues or fees. All

represent the very best of the aspirations embodied in
our five culture pillars. My hope is that WIN’s example

What is the Women’s
Innovative Network?
It’s no secret that the business world needs more
women leaders—not just in the boardroom or the
lab, but at every organizational level. The Women’s
Innovative Network (WIN) brings together employees
from all over FNC to support, empower and guide
women in achieving their full potential.
We launched in 2015 as the first-ever women’s
organization at FNC. We’re developing a program
of events and opportunities for self-improvement,
education, professional development, and
community involvement.
Events and Activities
WIN is lively, dynamic, optimistic, and growing. We
organize a variety of events and activities open to all
FNC employees:
■ Presentations and panel discussions featuring
respected experts and business leaders
■ Classes on relevant industry, technology, business
and workplace topics
■ Informal group discussions to share personal insights
and wisdom
■ Attendance at women’s leadership and professional
networking events
■ Participation in community fundraisers
■ Volunteer opportunities to support charitable causes
■ Promoting Science, Technology, Engineering and
Math (STEM) education for women
