Graci Harkema shares her experiences overcoming adversity and exemplifies the power in speaking and living your truth.
The criteria for this honor are women leaders who have not only had significant business success, many at a global level but have also made Michigan a better place to live and work through their efforts. Their contributions are significant and will impact future women leaders for generations to come. Many have received other honors, including this program in years past, but their continued success and drive to improve the lives of others entitles them to this induction.
