The 4th National Women in Engineering Leadership Summit 2015

Date: 18-Nov-15 to 19-Nov-15
Location: Mercure Brisbane / Brisbane / Australia
Category: Conferences & Trade Fairs

Despite numerous gender diversity initiatives within organisations, women continue to be significantly under-represented in the engineering profession. While an increasing number of women are choosing engineering as a career, their representation at a leadership level is considerably lower than in many other professions. A multitude of diverse factors contribute towards this severe gender disparity in the sector, evidenced by the variety of issues impacting women’s entry into and success in the industry. In order for women to be successful in the engineering field, they must learn to navigate the complex environment, overcome common career challenges and develop their leadership skills.

The Women in Engineering Leadership Summit 2015 will address the unique challenges that women face in the engineering profession and will provide both practical and proven strategies to overcome obstacles in order to facilitate leadership excellence. Inspirational and successful women, with backgrounds in engineering, from across industries will share their stories of their own defining moments, and will offer critical advice to attain success for current and emerging leaders. Register your team early to be a part of this engaging conversation!
