CANANDAIGUA — The Rochester Business Journal recently selected UR Medicine Thompson Health Vice President of Legal and Regulatory Affairs/General Counsel Elizabeth Talia as a 2025 Circle of Excellence honoree.
The Women of Excellence awards recognize high-achieving women for their career accomplishments including professional experience, community involvement, leadership and sustained commitment to mentoring. Members of the Circle of Excellence are prior Women of Excellence honorees who demonstrate longstanding, notable success in the community and who are leading the way for other women.
Talia, with Thompson since 2011, also serves as vice chair for Compeer Rochester and is on the board for the United Way of Greater Rochester and the Finger Lakes. She is one of seven Circle of Excellence honorees this year.
“The Circle of Excellence honorees are trailblazers and change makers who aren’t afraid to face adversity and stand up for what they believe. They know the value of helping other women see something special in themselves, something they might not have known was there. We at the Rochester Business Journal are pleased to honor these transformational leaders,” said Suzanne Fischer-Huettner, managing director of BridgeTower Media/Rochester Business Journal.
This year’s Women of Excellence awards celebration is May 8 at the Joseph A. Floreano Rochester Riverside Convention Center. Honorees will be profiled in a special magazine inserted into the May 9 issue of the Rochester Business Journal and will be available online at RBJ.net.
