Metropolitan BPW is a professional organization dedicated to building women leaders in the greater Charlotte community. 

We advocate for working women by building professional, political and personal leaders in a supportive environment. Membership in BPW encourages women to develop their leadership abilities through networking, public speaking and leadership roles. Belonging to BPW helps women advance their careers and develop their hidden talents.

Our group has a monthly lunch meeting with an informative program.  We meet the third Wednesday of each month at Maggiano's Little Italy in SouthPark.  Networking begins at 11:30 am with the program beginning at noon.  For February's program we will be hear from guest speaker, Terri Bennett, founder of the Do Your Part team. 

Officially, she’s the founder of Do Your Part and the Vice President of Content and Production.  Behind the scenes, she’s involved in all of the content they produce, she’s the face of our Do Your Part feature videos and she uses her scientific background to make sure they deliver information you can trust.  Before launching Do Your Part, Terri was the Chief Meteorologist at the NBC affiliate in Charlotte.  She spent more than 16 years providing weather forecasts in Charlotte and was actually the first (and only) female Chief Meteorologist in the market.  Her work fueled her passion for protecting the planet.  While providing nightly weather reports and covering major weather events, Terri branched out into producing television segments about protecting our water supply in a series named “WaterWise” and hosted another segment on natural gardening techniques known as “Terri’s Garden”.  Her work on television earned her the title of “Best Weathercaster in the Carolinas” numerous times, two prestigious Emmy awards, and the “Excellence in Science 

We also offer additional networking and professional development through "BPW After Five" events.
