Sharan Tash, founder of the Wilmette based business, The Professional Networker, Inc., and founder of the unique brand of connecting called Boomerang Networking was honored by receiving the prestigious President's Award from the Chicago Area Chapter of the National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO).

CHICAGO, IL (PRWEB) July 9, 2007 - July 9, 2007

The illustrious President's Award was given to Sharan Tash by the 2006-2007 NAWBO-Chicago President, Catherine Lee of CDL & Associates on June 28th at NAWBO's Installation Dinner. The President's Award is NAWBO Chicago's MVP award. It recognizes the individual who was instrumental in the organization's accomplishments and achievements during the President's term.

In her capacity as the Board Director for Programming, Sharan was responsible for organizing NAWBO-Chicago's Mega-Networking dinners for the year and helping the Gidley Management Group organize the calendar of events. She was also the Chairperson for Corporate Retention and has helped build the retention committee through her networking. One of the questions that is asked at each committee meeting is, "What do you need in your business or personal life that one of us can help you with?" The Affiliates committee is another volunteer area that she has put her time into, helping Angelika Coghlan and Gail Zelitzky to make NAWBO's Affiliate relationships stronger and more numerous.

"Sharan is a woman who possesses the energy, the dedication and the work of three hi-energy women. She loves NAWBO and she demonstrates it with her giving--her ideas, her initiative and her follow through. She works on everyone's behalf and she does it with a most generous spirit. She does what her business promotes--she builds relationships and brings them into the organization with an attitude of inclusive caring," said Lee.

Sheila Gidley, the Executive Director of NAWBO said, "As if it's not enough to be "The Professional Networker", Sharan Tash is the quintessential advocate for NAWBO Chicago and small business owners everywhere. She uses her natural talent to mentor, encourage, and connect nearly everyone she meets, championing NAWBO's mission to propel women business owners into political social and economic spheres of power. Sharan has without a doubt been a major force in moving our organization forward."
