Washington Business Journal names SpeakerBox Communications CEO among top businesswomen in the DC area
McLean, VA (PRWEB) November 17, 2008 -- SpeakerBox Communications, a leading technology PR and communications firm, announced today that President and CEO Elizabeth Shea has been honored as one of the Women Who Mean Business by the Washington Business Journal. This annual award honors women from every industry and profession who have made a difference in their communities, blazed a trail for other women, and are leaving a mark on Washington business.
Since taking over sole proprietorship of SpeakerBox, formerly Shea Hedges Group, in 2007, Elizabeth Shea has led the agency through a re-branding while growing the business and providing new and innovative programs for employees. In the past year, Shea led her team in the creation of new Web site and implementation of expanded services; rolled out an upgraded, generous employee benefits package; introduced a Web-based infrastructure to create efficiency and collaboration; and migrated its technology applications to a more mobile, efficient, and collaborative platform.
SpeakerBox has grown its client base while maintaining a dedication to long term clients due to Shea's commitment to and encouragement of superior client service. Today, the company's roster includes emerging and mid-market firms such as Plateau Systems, Apptix, Mpowerplayer, Cernium Corporation, Apptis, TerraGo Technologies, Red Hat, StackSafe and more.
"We see Elizabeth's energy, intelligence, and commitment to our clients, our team, and the DC technology community everyday," said Lisa Throckmorton, executive vice president of SpeakerBox. "It is wonderful to see her dedication recognized by the community she works so hard to promote and support."
In addition to her work at SpeakerBox, Elizabeth serves on the board of the Technology Marketing Alliance, the advisory council for the George Mason University communication department, and the communications committee for SECAF (the Small and Emerging Contractors Advisory Forum).
The 2008 Women Who Mean Business honorees will be celebrated at a cocktail reception on November 20 at the Ritz Carlton, Washington D.C.
