Top female executive: Jessica Sage, Owner, Chief Financial Officer
What does it mean to be a woman-owned business?
My gender has no bearing on my businesses or how I run them. However, I’m acutely aware how unique I am in my industry, the C suite and even more so in ownership. That’s why I support efforts like this spotlight. My representation is important for woman and men alike in small business, middle market, publicly traded companies and government entities.
What challenges have you faced as a woman-owned business?
Businesses require great staff, great product/service, good timing and a relentless pursuit to make it all work. As a woman, I do have a repetitive exposure of incorrect assumptions that it’s his business-whichever man I’m standing next to. Followed by, the predictable sheer surprised look on their face when that same man corrects their incorrect assumption. To be fair, I don’t go around throwing titles around because it’s not my leadership style.
How do you support women in business and in the community?
Although being a woman is not a weakness and therefore not in need of implied support, I truly understand the power of being visible and I lifting as I climb. I have been a member of WPO which brings together women Presidents for peer support and to share real insight into successful strategies. I participate in CWIT meetings and was honored to be their Women of the Year in 2017. I also represented the Maritime Association of SC as Chair and SC Red Cross Member and Committee Chair.
What recent accomplishments are you most proud of?
I cut my teeth on the recession of 2008, so I take nothing for granted. However, the real grand prize of leadership is seeing your team grow stronger as you grow stronger. Teamwork is truly magical, and I have an epic team!
