Michelle Caldwell Thompson receives the 25th Annual Metzger Award

Leader and mentor Michelle Caldwell Thompson received the 2024 Patricia Lacey Metzger Award for distinguished achievement from the Women’s Leadership Colloquium at the University of Mary Washington. Thompson is CEO of the firm CTI Real Estate as well as a dedicated community leader and advocate for women in business, education, mentorship and entrepreneurship.

Presented last week for the 25th year, the Metzger Award goes annually to someone who upholds high standards and achieves personal and professional success. Traditionally, the honor is bestowed during the UMW Women’s Leadership Colloquium. But with both events celebrating milestones – the Colloquium turns 30 on Thursday, Nov. 7 – a quarter-century worth of Metzger winners deserved a day of their own.
