Congratulations, Sherry Phillips, on your new role as CEO of Forbes Media, the first female CEO in Forbes’ 107-year history! I am incredibly proud to celebrate this historic achievement with you. From being appointed Chief Revenue Officer in 2022, where she expertly led Forbes’ revenue-driving business across digital media, branded content, events, and marketing, to now taking the reins as CEO—Sherry’s journey is nothing short of inspiring. In 2024, under her leadership, Forbes achieved one of its best years yet, with a 50% increase in site traffic and a 40% growth in Live events revenue. Media defines culture, culture defines change, and change defines action. Sherry is an example of how businesses and leadership can create change and advance equality along the way. Here’s to you, Sherry, and the incredible impact you’re making!
Thanks Shelley, it's because of fierce female leaders like you that embolden us to ask for more.
Congratulations! Love it. “Media defines culture, culture defines change, and change defines action.” And love how you continue to celebrate and support women! #poweroftheonly

LFG!!! And let me be blunt : My bet is that it'll be at least another 107 years before anyone comes remotely close to doing as good of a job as this Rockstar is about to do! TAKE THAT TO THE BANK! ✨️💰 Shelley Zalis
