This year Comfori is proudly host the 2nd annual Women in Engineering conference 2019, the theme is this event is “Breaking the Boundaries”. This theme is rooted in the notion that all women engineers, young and old, veterans, those in the early stages of their career, and engineers still pursuing their collegiate degree, are breaking boundaries both personally and for women across the globe.
Now women has every opportunity to climb that ladder as same as the men. A woman can believe that she can rise up being among the decision makers for an organization, and as such aspire to be a leader in the engineering department despite being in a male-dominated field. However despite the diversity, women continue to be significantly under-represented as engineers. This under-representation is magnified at management and executive ranks. A range of factors contributes to the gender disparity, including unconscious bias, working flexible roles, and managing stakeholder relationships.
This conference will be about taking on what it takes to be a women in engineering field, to take on the challenges that they often faced. We will be touching on the core principles of stepping up and lead, to instil confidence among management to trust in you to get the job done. It is also important for male leaders to understand the potential possibility for championing women into leadership role. It goes without saying that will be driving towards breaking the perception on the barriers that have prevented women to reach leadership.
