NEW YORK, Dec. 25, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Women We Admire is pleased to announce The Top 50 Women Leaders of Rhode Island for 2024. Known as The Ocean State, Rhode Island is renowned for its picturesque coastal towns, 400 miles of shoreline, and rich cultural contributions in art and education. Despite being the smallest state in the U.S., Rhode Island boasts a robust economy driven by diverse industries, including manufacturing, life sciences, software, maritime, tourism, and business services.
Among this year's awardees is Beth Hebert-Silvia, Senior Vice President and Practice Lead in charge of Health Plans for the Pharmaceutical Strategies Group. Hebert-Silvia leads a team that has generated over $4.5 billion in annual savings for clients, including nearly $1.8 billion in procurement savings.
We also acknowledge Gloria Arcia, Executive Vice President for Finance and Administration and the Chief Financial Officer of Roger Williams University (RWU), a top-ranked university in Rhode Island. Arcia is a seasoned financial executive with a wealth of experience in higher education management. In her career, she has spearheaded numerous initiatives to streamline financial processes, contributing significantly to the university's growth and development.
Lastly, we congratulate Cristina Feden, Commercial Chief Administrative Officer and Market President for RI at Berkshire Bank. Feden leads the Eastern Connecticut and Rhode Island Commercial team, driving new C&I and CRE lending and business banking relationships in the region while further strengthening the bank's established presence.
