ABOUT JOURNEY TO C-SUITE

EVENT ROADSHOW

Women are dramatically outnumbered in senior leadership. Only 1 in 5 C-suite leaders is a woman, and only 1 in 25 is a woman of color. 

Journey to C-Suite, presented by Indeed.com, is an event series where you can hear real-life experiences and paths to break through ceilings to build a sustainable future by increasing the inclusion of women and other disadvantaged communities in the C-Suite.

This four-stop event roadshow will bring our community together in three Chapter Cities and virtually to highlight local women’s journeys in a panel discussion with leaders at different levels of leadership and an expert voice as the event moderator.

Join us for an engaging panel and a networking event to connect in deep and meaningful ways and learn from our speakers on how we can collectively bring diversity to the top.

GIVING BACK

Partial proceeds from Journey to C-Suite Roadshow will support WNORTH’s charity of choice, One Girl Can.

One Girl Can gives some of the world’s most vulnerable, high-potential girls a chance to rise above extreme poverty and gender inequality. Through education, training, and mentoring, girls are empowered to achieve their goals, earn a meaningful living, and build better lives — for themselves, their families, and their communities.
