COVID-19 has brought women into the spotlight again, with many jobs that women occupy being disproportionally impacted. Manufacturing has an opportunity to be clear that women are wanted, welcome, and have a path to ongoing career growth and success. The next horizons for manufacturing are more digital, requiring talent to help drive automation, AR/VR strategies, and mitigate cyber risk. This in turn opens up new pathways for talent, including more on-ramps into higher paying, future-proofed jobs. But how can the Manufacturing sector convince women to make their career here? Join us for a discussion around creating a culture of inclusion in manufacturing.

In this session, you’ll learn:

• New horizons and pathways in Manufacturing that open up exciting opportunities for women to step into the sector and a rewarding career.
• Leadership ‘rules of the road’ for eliminating unconscious bias and creating a culture of inclusion.
• What you can do to position yourself for a wildly successful career in Manufacturing.
