The Schreiber Institute for Women’s Leadership at UW-Green Bay announced the addition of Pa Lee Moua as the program’s first full-time executive director.
Moua brings more than 20 years of experience as an educational administrator, primarily in the Fox Cities, with personal and professional experiences in diversity, equity and inclusion practices and its application in the areas of program planning, training, development and leadership.
She earned a doctorate in leadership studies from Marian University and a master’s in educational leadership and administration from the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh.
“I am extremely excited to take on this new role and work alongside many influential women who continue to support and elevate other women,” Moua said. “To me, leadership is not only about impact, but transformational changes that inspire, empower and enhance the narrative of leadership to include more women who look like me.”
The university established the institute in 2021, recognizing the region’s growing need for a pipeline of women leaders and the distinct challenges they face in the workplace. The institute is a comprehensive leadership resource committed to providing ongoing, forward-thinking connection, education and inspiration to support women.
According to outgoing Executive Director Janet Bonkowski, the Institute in the last year gained significant momentum, hosting dozens of formal and informal educational, inspirational and networking events while engaging with more than 2,000 individuals. In April 2023, the Institute was renamed the Schreiber Institute for Women’s Leadership when the Green Bay-based food company made a significant, but unspecified financial gift.
