WISE CONFERENCE 2019
There’s something for everyone at our WISE Conference:
Women and men in STEM – Build your own skills at our specialist workshops, learn how you can be central to the skills mix of the future, be inspired by women at all stages of their careers like Linkedin’s Lisa Finnegan. Amazon’s Fiona McDonnell will share insights from Making a Difference: Why women become innovators and both will join a panel with neuroscientist Professor Gina Rippon, author of The Gendered Brain. Find ideas and motivation for your own career from WISE’s Young Professional’s Board and network at our drinks reception with your peers and make new connections.
Managers – Learn practical tools and approaches which have worked for your peers and organisations on their journey to better gender balance across STEM. Develop your skills in workshops about managing diverse teams and hear from Lloyds, Sky, LinkedIn, Network Rail and Amazon about what they are doing to address the skills gap and build a better gender balance for their future success. Network with senior leaders from across the UK.
Educational institutions – join the debate about the best way to address the future skills mix – hear from the OU, from key new research into STEM graduates and listen to what employers need. Learn about the exciting new platform My Skills My Life from WISE and network with employers and educational providers alike.
Diversity and Inclusion champions and HR managers – Learn new approaches to practically work on gender balance in your organisation – hear from NSAR, Network Rail, LinkedIn, BASF and many more as they share what really works. Interactive workshops will help you develop your programmes and network with other professionals on the same journey as you to gain insights you can take back to your company.
