About The Kate Voth Award

In 2013 at the 1st Annual Evening for Austin Leading Ladies, SOS Leadership presented the Leading Lady of Inspiration Award to Kate Voth. Kate was an incredible leader, a woman of optimism, strength, and courage. She was a leader in every sense of the word, and she inspired every person who met her.

On June 1, 2013, less than three months after we honored her and were moved by her emotional speech, Kate died at age 27 after a valient battle with cancer. There is a hole in all of our hearts, and yet her powerful leadership legacy lives on. Thus, the Leading Lady of Inspiration Award is now the Kate Voth Award, and we are looking forward to announcing the first winner of this award at the 2nd Annual Evening for Austin Leading Ladies. We are accepting nominations through March 1st, and you can request a nomination form by emailing Shane Montoya ([email protected]).

About the Learning to Lead Panel

The theme for the 2014 Evening for Austin Leading Ladies is Bring Your Leadership to Life. The central idea that will direct the Learning to Lead Panel is: EVERY leader is on a journey to learn how to lead. The panelists will share what they have learned and are continuing to learn as they strive to bring their leadership to life!

Panel Moderator: Courtney Clark

  • Alexis Ferguson, Executive Consultant, Rodan + Fields
