Leveraging Women in the Workforce

***This event is hosted and sponsored by Symantec. All registration will be facilitated through Symantec, rather than WITI.***


Are organizations leveraging their female workforce to the fullest?

What can be done to optimize their contribution?

What are the obstacles?


Symantec Women's Network is proud to bring you the latest research in this field! Dolores Bernardo of Catalyst will present the research and moderate a panel of local business leaders to discuss the issues. By busting many of the myths we collectively hold, and by changing some of our practices, we hope that the performance of organizations can improve, and the job satisfaction and contribution of women can increase.


This will also be a wonderful opportunity to network with business people who want to improve the opportunity for women in the workplace.
