LATINA Style has announced its top 12 corporate Latina executives of the year. Now in its tenth year, the initiative honors highflyers selected by peers as leaders in the Hispanic community and wider corporate arena.

Each year the magazine recognizes the achievements of Latinas who are excelling in their respective fields in various industries across the United States.
