Join us on Thursday, 3 December 2020 for a discussion on the core theme of AMCHAM'S Women's Week - "Girls to Leaders: The Journey"
We have lined up a couple of views that we hope will be grounds for a robust discussion: We kick off with insights on often unspoken challenges of Raising Girls. We then move the conversation into career development perspectives in our second panel - Charting the Path Forward, where we zone in on how companies arebridging the gender gap and enabling more leadership opportunities for women in the workforce. Be a part of the conversation.

Education, access to opportunities and a proactive support system play a vital role in enabling girls to “dream big” of a productive future, about leadership roles and how they can navigate towards achieving them. Much of this stems from the reigning culture and expectations of family, peers and related perceived roles.
This panel will look at the often unspoken challenges faced by girls and young women today.

Success is defined in many different ways but it is rare that it happens in isolation. Establishing one’s formal and informal networks, getting into position to welcome opportunity and lastly, seizing it, is second nature to some. As we seek to empower and propel women into leadership positions and overcome societal challenges, are we providing the right environment in the workplace to help women simultaneously realise their personal and professional ambitions? Providing this level of support might seem complex, but it can be done - men have had it for years.
This panel will take a look at the hurdles women encounter and what companies are doing to support women already in work place and those re-entering the workforce.
