Brunswick Corporation has announced that seven of its female leaders have been named to Boating Industry magazine’s 2026 list of Women Making Waves, the highest number of Brunswick honourees in the award’s history.
The annual Women Making Waves list celebrates women across the marine industry who are driving meaningful impact within their organisations while championing innovation and growth across the sector. This year’s Brunswick honourees highlight the impact and influence of its female leaders across the organisation, including:
- Kim Chapman, Senior Manager of Communications, Navico Group
- Jamie Evans, VP of Marketing, Brunswick Boat Group
- Laura Fleischman, Director of Dealer Sales, Mercury Marine
- Kim Greene, Executive Administrative Assistant, Mercury Marine
- Crystal Hollenbaugh, Chief Operating Officer, Freedom Boat Club of Wilmington
- Rebecca Waters, Senior Director, Marketing & Sales Enablement, Freedom Boat Club
- Jenny Westfall, Director of Internal Communications, Brunswick Corporation
“Recognising the exceptional women across our organisation is something we take tremendous pride in, and this year’s class is a testament to the remarkable talent that exists throughout Brunswick,” said Jill Wrobel, Chief Human Resources Officer, Brunswick Corporation. “We are incredibly proud of their achievements and grateful to Boating Industry for continuing to shine a light on the leaders who are shaping the future of our industry.”
Brunswick’s recognition of its female leaders reflects its broader focus on cultivating a high-performing culture where talent can thrive. Earlier this year, Brunswick was named one of America’s Greatest Workplaces for Women by Newsweek.
The full list of Women Making Waves honourees is available in the digital edition of the June/July issue of Boating Industry magazine, here.
