	Jennifer Scully President and CEO, Clinical Resources LLC Ernst & Young Entrepreneurial Winning Women Class of 2009
"Entrepreneurial Winning Women is so needed because women entrepreneurs have a lot to offer the US and world economy. We have innovative ideas, we’re multi-taskers with great people skills and we’re very resourceful. However, we tend to have a ‘fear of flying,’ and so Ernst & Young really helps open doors and therefore take our companies to new levels of growth and success."
