Women in Metalcasting Announces Virtual Career Workshop 

Women are underrepresented in critical industries such as manufacturing, but change is possible. A new workshop from AFS Women in Metalcasting will address the unique challenges and opportunities women have when it comes to building careers and advancing as leaders in the metalcasting industry. 

Women in Leadership: Strategies to Drive Change is a virtual workshop going live online Nov. 10, 2020. Dr. Kathleen Buse, President and Founder of Advancing Women in the Workforce, will be the featured presenter. She will provide an overview of the issues women experience navigating careers, review strategies that facilitate women’s achievement and advancement, and offer tactics for women and organizational leaders to implement that support women’s achievement. 

Attendees will have the opportunity to opt into a digital networking “pod,” where they’ll be introduced to a small group of session attendees and equipped with online networking activities. 

This workshop has been designed for anyone interested in understanding how gender impacts achievement in the workplace and is seeking strategies to increase the representation of women in leadership.
