This editorial features 13 of the most accomplished female leaders working in health promotion based on their contributions to health science, their mentorship, and their executive leadership for organizations with far reaching health impact.

Other renowned experts in the health promotion profession authored biographies of these amazing leaders and offered thoughts on how their influence will be felt in years to come. I offer reflections on the differential impact women leaders are having on the direction of the health promotion discipline.
