Nine months. Countless connections. Lasting impact. We’re proud to celebrate the close of Sysco’s inaugural Rise Together Women’s Leadership Program — a 9-month journey designed to accelerate the growth of high-potential women across our business.
Through executive mentorship, senior sponsorship, and visibility to top senior leaders, participants gained invaluable exposure to executive-level leadership while building strong networks across the enterprise. Skill-building workshops and intentional development opportunities helped them gain confidence, advance their careers, and strengthen their leadership impact.
With 25% already achieving upward career movement and nearly 90% reporting greater leadership confidence, the program’s influence is undeniable — and we’re just getting started.
