Join us online for a transformative conversation about equity, diversity, and inclusion at the Advancing Women’s Leadership Western Canada virtual launch event hosted by the Information and Communication Technology Council (ICTC). This program champions women’s representation in leadership roles while creating workplaces where everyone thrives.

The event will feature a dynamic panel discussion with experienced leaders who will share real-world strategies for advancing equity and fostering diversity in leadership roles, and ICTC's top research and policy experts will share groundbreaking findings on gender equity in leadership positions, as well as the transformative impact of diverse workplaces. You will also learn about the program's innovative assessment tool that is designed to help organizations identify gaps, measure progress, and implement actionable strategies for more inclusive leadership.

This issue doesn’t only affect women—solving the gender gap in leadership is about fostering inclusive leadership teams that benefit all genders, backgrounds, and perspectives. Whether you’re an executive, HR leader, or an ally in equity, this event will equip you to drive meaningful change and shape the future of leadership in your organization.
