DR. JENNIFER CAMOTA LUEBKE RECOGNIZED AMONG MOST INFLUENTIAL FILIPINA WOMEN IN THE WORLD

Roseville, Calif., Oct. 17, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dr. Jennifer Camota Luebke, Chief Workforce Inclusion Officer at PRIDE Industries, will receive the prestigious “Most Influential Filipina Woman in the World” award from the Foundation for Filipina Women's Network (FWN) at the 18th Annual Filipina Leadership Global Summit in Lisbon, Portugal.

The Most Influential Filipina Woman in the World award (popularly known as Global FWN100™) was launched in the United States in 2006 and expanded its search globally in 2013. Global FWN100™awardees have reached the pinnacle of their careers, breaking the “glass ceiling” at the C-Suite level in business, or reaching leadership positions in government and politics.

“The Global FWN100™ awardees are innovators and thought leaders, successful entrepreneurs, rising stars under age 35, practitioners, and public service advocates,” said Marily Mondejar, Founder and CEO at the Foundation for Filipina Women’s Network. “They are magnificent women doing extraordinary work and blazing a trail for the next generation of Filipina leaders.”

Camota Luebke was selected from an outstanding field of nominees from 10 countries. She was recognized in the “Innovators & Thought Leaders” category, which highlights women who have launched a new enterprise, created a new learning function, or completely overhauled an existing way of doing things. Recipients of this award have made a tangible difference in their communities and in the lives of many people.

“I’m excited about the opportunity to meet and collaborate with so many dynamic, innovative women,” said Camota Luebke. “And I want to thank FWN for bringing the Filipina women of the world together to plan the future of our community, and to mentor our next generation of leaders.”

Camota Luebke leads PRIDE Industries’ workforce inclusion programming strategy and operations, using innovation and data to develop integrated, community-based employment pathways for people with disabilities. As an advocate for workplace inclusion, she influences employment policies by working with local, state, and national legislative offices, as well as community advocacy organizations. Her lived experience as a parent to an adult son with an intellectual disability—along with her academic research on leadership beliefs and practices that inform disability-inclusive learning communities—give her a unique perspective and insight into the population that PRIDE Industries serves.

In addition to her work in the business community, Camota Luebke is the co-founder of Ability Revolution, Inc., a not-for-profit organization that produces film and media projects that influence how society views people with disabilities.
