NEW YORK—Benco Dental has been named one of the 2018 NAFE Top Companies for Executive Women by the National Association for Female Executives, to recognize American corporations where women have significant clout to make the decisions that affect their company's future and its bottom line. The NAFE Top 70 Companies are featured in the April/May issue of Working Mother. The full report on this year's winners are listed here.

"We are very pleased to again be recognized as a top company for executive women by NAFE.

"NAFE's annual scrutiny of women's progress at American companies offers essential data about the movement of women into top leadership in the private sector. In this first year of having five NAFE top companies with boards of 50 percent or more women, we point to a synergy between the greater presence of women on the board and an increase in the number of winning companies with women CEOs and with 50 percent-plus women in the C-suite (10 companies)," said Betty Spence, NAFE president.

"NAFE's Top Companies shows us what progressive organizations are doing to ensure women's advancement into executive positions. This year, noting increased enrollment and more companies with high scores, we decided to enlarge the list by 10. Areas such as number of female CEOs and promotions at every level illustrate improvement. However, while there is increased CEO engagement in making sure women have the best chance to become leaders, we also note there has also been a dip in key indicators like top earners, which needs to be addressed," said Subha V. Barry, senior vice president and managing director, Working Mother Media.
