The statistics are familiar and disheartening: Women in business hold less than 25 percent of all executive positions and less than 5 percent of CEO titles. For the women who do climb the corporate ladder, it can be lonely at the top -- but a group calledChiefis out to change that.

The New York–based privatenetworkand club connects high-ranking women across industries, with the goal of fostering community and elevating more women intoleadershiproles. Chief launched in January with $3 million in funding and 200 founding members from such organizations as HBO, Amazon, Walmart and Instagram. (The waitlist currently exceeds 4,000.) Its flagship offering, the Core program, splits members into groups of eight to 10 for monthly meetings to discuss their experiences in the workforce, and the Salon Series, held at Chief's Tribeca Clubhouse, offers everything from workshops on getting a board seat to monthly poker nights.
