Partner Denise Grant (New York-Project Development & Finance) was named to the “2019 Most Influential Women in Corporate America” list by Savoy Magazine. The list showcases a cross section of African-American business leaders and executives who represent a diverse range of industries with national and global focus. These professionals are recognized for their talent and leadership and their ability to achieve impact within some of the largest corporations in the world. This is the third time that Denise has been recognized by the publication – she was also named to the “Most Influential Black Lawyers” list in 2015 and 2018.

 “I’m extremely honored to again be included among such an accomplished group of women,” said Denise Grant, partner in the Project Development & Finance practice at Shearman & Sterling. “As a strong champion of diversity and inclusion, I believe that dedicating oneself to excellence while embracing differences and mentoring the next generation of talent will lead to an environment that yields better client solutions, more innovative strategies and a holistic, collective vision for the future.”
