Ruby CEO Kate Winkler to join Future of Work Panel at 2022 eWOW summit, addressing workplace inclusivity and resilience

Ruby.com, the premier provider of virtual receptionist and live chat services, is pleased to announce that CEO Kate Winkler will be speaking on a panel at eWOW’s 2022 virtual summit on April 23. The event brings together voices across business and tech who are transforming the workplace landscape, offering insights for employers to eliminate discrimination and build inclusive cultures.

This one-day event is for ambitious and forward-thinking women in all stages of life looking to build resilience, find inspiration, and prepare for changes ahead. The summit will open with a keynote address from Nicktoria Johnson, Chief Diversity Officer at Credera, followed by a power-packed lineup that includes presentations from Lisa Minkin (VP of People at Tile), Madhukar Govindaraju (CEO of Numly), Dr. Maisha Cobb (founder of Mpact International), and others.

Ruby’s Kate Winkler will share her perspective on the Future of Work Panel alongside Rashim Mogha, founder of eWOW; Brea Starmer, founder of Lions + Tigers; Selina Meere, Managing Director at Trevanna Tracks; Dr. Georgette Zinaty, Executive Vice President at Corporate Class Inc. Kate Winkler, CEO at Ruby, has been outspoken about her intent to change the status quo when it comes to inclusive leadership.

“The more women in leadership positions, the more opportunities created for other women,” she said. “With representation, we impact many other aspects of the future of work, empowering women to shape the next iteration of the future and make it even better.”

Winkler has real-world experience transforming unforeseen disruptions into opportunities to promote inclusion and improve employee experience. During COVID, she moved a 100% in-office operations model with 600-plus employees to a fully remote workforce over the course of 11 days, addressing employee and customer concerns with thoughtful and proactive communication. Under Winkler’s leadership, the company has reaffirmed its status as an equitable place to work with a keen focus on innovation—all while delivering meaningful customer experiences that drive growth for over 14,000 small businesses throughout the US.

In recognition of her achievements, Winkler recently received the 2021 Gold Stevie Award in the Female Executive of the Year – Business Services category for companies with 11–2,500 employees. She was also included on the Portland Business Journal’s list of the top 60 Oregon executives in 2020.
