The woman featured in our Partner spotlight this month claims she has a passion for “Pot Stirring and Stealthy Revolution.”   A founding NAWBO D/FW Chapter board member and former past-president, this dynamic go-getter will inspire you to join the "revolution."

Wanda Brice is CEO of The Women’s Museum.  It is a Smithsonian Affiliate, is a nationally chartered Museum.  It is the ONLY comprehensive women’s history museum in America.  Women’s history (much of it untold!) celebrates, inspires and educates.

Brice states, “Our educational programming targets girls aged 10 – 18 and women of all ages and interests.  The Texas Girls State Fair and Leadership America are our two flagship programs.  We provide educational and entertaining programming around all our featured exhibits, which change four times a year.

As part of the organizing DFW NAWBO Board, NAWBO president and NAWBO Corporate Sponsor, Brice says she relished her participation with dynamic women business owners.

She explains, “I found the place to indulge my passion for Pot Stirring and Stealthy Revolution. Along with trail blazers (more like flame throwers) such as Dr. Aggie Jordan DeLaurenti, Doris Thomas, Valerie Freeman, Anita Porco, NAWBO members opened many doors for women in business. "

Brice has been the recipient of many awards over the years.  Recent awards lincludeThe Athena Award, The Dallas Business Journal’s Outstanding Women Award, Community Service Award from the Association of Women in Communication and the upcoming Northwood University Distinguished Women Award.  While she was in NAWBO, she received the National Public Policy Advocate Award from NAWBO.

She and her husband recently bought a farm on 105 beautiful acres in far northeast Texas.

She says, “We bought it as a retreat from traffic, cell phones, email and noise.  It is a perfect retreat from business – or it was until at a meeting with our financial planner, she asked me what kind of income the farm might produce.”  Brice says her entrepreneurial wheels began to spin. . .!!

PS. Brice wanted to be sure to let the NAWBO membership know that The Women’s Museum is celebrating its 10th anniversary with a Gala event on November 13 – An Unforgettable Evening.    Log on to The Women’s Museum website for details.
