Volunteer committees are at the center of the Inforum experience. They provide the energy, the diverse talent, the creativity, business experience and connections that enable Inforum to thrive. Joining committees gives members an opportunity to share resources, build networks and make friends. Special skills are required on some committees, so membership is not automatic, but we will contact you.
Jobs in science, technology, engineering and mathematics are growing faster than in any other U.S. sector. But even though women comprise half the workforce, the National Girls Collaborative Project reports that nearly 70 percent of the science and engineering jobs are held by men. Inforum’s inSTEM initiative aims to help narrow the STEM gender gap by providing women with opportunities to serve as role models for girls and young women through collaborations with other nonprofits.

Regional Councils are critical to Inforum’s mission and operational success. They are closest to Inforum’s most valuable asset – its members – because the councils are composed of members. They expand the reach and bandwidth of Inforum by serving as visible ambassadors in the marketplace and leading/serving on strategic committees that implement Inforum’s strategy and key initiatives. The councils provide an opportunity for members to showcase and strengthen their skills in a prominent leadership role.
The Inforum Group Speakers Bureau provides an opportunity for Inforum members to share their areas of expertise with other members and hone their speaking and presentation skills.

Inforum’s Michigan Women’s Leadership Report is a biennial snapshot on the status of women at the highest levels of governance and leadership in Michigan’s public companies.
The 2020 Report is a collaborative initiative between Inforum and the Mike Ilitch School of Business at Wayne State University. It follows eight previous reports produced biennially since 2003 that track the advancement of gender diversity in the boardrooms and C-suites of the Michigan companies ranked by revenue and market capitalization.
In some ways, 2019 was a year of breakthroughs – the number of Fortune 500 companies led by women hit a new high, women for the first time held at least one board seat at every S&P 500 company, and the Thirty Percent Coalition launched a national campaign to promote women of color to corporate boards. And there is progress, especially on boards. For the first time, 20% of the directors of Russell 3000 boards are women, a figure Michigan exceeds at 21%.
Among the largest companies, all-male boards are a shrinking species. Click here to read more.
