    Where Are the Women?

    How many times have you scanned a list of "bests" and wondered why women are missing from roll calls of the highest paying jobs in publishing, PR, journalism, marketing and digital? Too many to count.

    That's why NYWICI monitors the blogosphere for you, reads annual reports and scrutinizes media outlets to find out where the women are, where they aren't and why.

    Send us your suggestions and share statistics on inequities in your field or links to relevant articles.

    Kelly DeChiaroShe is director of digital at BCA Marketing Communications, a full-service boutique marketing agency, and also working toward a master's degree in graphic communications management from NYU.

    Why Kelly joined NYWICI "I am always trying to keep up to date on industry trends. I work at a small agency, so NYWICI is a good opportunity to meet other people in communications, see what they are doing and take the things I learn and apply them to my job and current clients.

    "NYWICI is interesting since it has members from a variety of different fields within communications (PR, advertising, journalism, internal communications) and also from a variety of different verticals (finance, health care, for instance). As I have gotten more involved, I've found a great amount of diversity and exposure to different points of view." Renew your membership or consider joining.
